About me
Tell me if any of this is you:
Your body does the opposite of what you want – you feel constantly overwhelmed, tired, burnt-out and depressed. You know you have responsibilities to attend to but your body won’t move – it just wants to lie on the sofa and binge-watch your comfort shows, eat bad food or even just stare into space.
Despite “resting” – your mind is constantly screaming at you. Anxious and angry. Your family or partner don’t understand and see you as lazy, which only makes you hate yourself more.
When you do manage to socialise with other people – your brain just won’t stop shouting at you that you’re getting it wrong. This is because when you do talk – people misunderstand you and get annoyed. You seem to either say the wrong thing or say nothing at all. Does it feel like people speak a secret language that you were never taught?
Maybe the phrase: “Why can’t I just be normal?” crosses your mind often.
I understand, living like this is exhausting and isolating. But it doesn’t have to continue like this. You are here because there is a part of you that knows you’re capable of change – you just need the tools, awareness and some support to start the journey. I can help you with this.
Together, we will learn where your difficult feelings come from, and what they’re trying to tell you. We will explore therapeutic tools and techniques to help manage your anxiety and low-mood wherever you are.
We will close those hard chapters of your life and look to your future with a renewed sense of balance and self-love, so you are in flow with yourself, your family and those around you. Gaining a new sense of control of your body and mind, you can also enter a room unafraid of making new friends.
Contact me today to find out how. See above for my email, phone and website. It doesn’t have to be this hard anymore, choose to change today. I look forward to hearing from you.

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.

Additional information
It all starts with just one click. Call me: 07749 820488 or email me.
Step 1: Get in touch via email, phone or my website to book in your first session.
Step 2. First Session - Your first session is reduced at £45. Should you decide after you'd like to continue, sessions will be my usual rate of £75.
In your first session I will ask you questions from my intake form, this gives me an overall picture of who are you are (eg: sleep schedule, family uprbinging, addictions, self-harming etc.) - having a base line of understanding where you are at can give us both an idea on what might prove to be helpful in exploring further. It is very informal and much like a normal conversation! :)
During this time you can ask any questions and bring any concerns you have about counselling. You'll see my personality and if counselling sessions with me would be something you'd be interested in, if so - we'll decide a regular day and time for sessions. Still need time to decide? That's okay! I'll drop a text or email in 2 days time to check in. If you decide you'd not like to continue - we'll go over what other options you have (I have diverse colleagues that I can recommend as well as charities and organisations.)
Sessions usually take place on a weekly basis on the same day and time. We work together moving towards your goals, for as long as you feel you need (recommended minimum 12 weeks to see progress).
Don't know if you're ready to commit to weekly? Get in touch and let's talk further, if our schedules work well together - we can too!
Sessions cost £75 per session. First session is reduced at £45. Invoices are sent a day ahead before sessions. I offer both online via Zoom, and in-person sessions in Haslemere and Guildford, Surrey.
Let's get you closer to where you want to be . Get in touch today via phone 07749 820488 or by email.
