About me
You may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply unsure of how to move forward. I offer a calm, grounded, and thoughtful approach to therapy, drawing on experience of supporting people from a wide range of backgrounds through relationship issues, stress, trauma, grief, life transitions, self-esteem, identity, anxiety, burnout and the challenges of living with long-term health conditions. My experience across varied settings has shaped an adaptable approach, allowing me to tailor therapy to each person’s individual needs and circumstances.
I work from the understanding that meaningful change happens within a relationship where you feel safe, heard, and able to be yourself. With over 10 years’ experience, I offer a compassionate and collaborative space where you can explore your experiences with honesty and curiosity. I believe therapy is a place to develop greater understanding of yourself, recognise patterns that may be influencing your life, and consider new possibilities. I will offer warmth alongside thoughtful challenge, helping you explore what feels important at a pace that respects your autonomy.
My approach is relational and explorative. I’ll listen carefully, share observations, and invite you to reflect on your thoughts, feelings, and ways of relating to yourself and others. At times, I may offer a perspective that differs from your own, creating space for curiosity, insight, and greater understanding.
I offer counselling to both individuals as well as couples.
I am trained to master's level in psychotherapy and hold postgraduate diplomas in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (SFCBT), PTSD management, and Life Coaching. As an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), I work to high professional and ethical standards. I have experience of working across charity organisations, the NHS, private sector services, and higher education, including supporting both students, staff, fellows and academics at the University of Cambridge.
In addition to my clinical work, I am a qualified supervisor and provide supervision to counsellors, psychotherapists, and mental health professionals at all stages of their careers, including those in training.

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
