About me

As an integrative BACP-accredited therapist, I am dedicated to helping you explore your thoughts and feelings in a safe and supportive space. My experience encompasses 5+ years of work with adolescents and adults in diverse environments, including schools, charitable organisations, and private practice.

I am passionate about helping you build confidence, manage stress or low mood, and learn healthy ways to cope. My focus is not only to help identify tools in the here and now, but also to help you understand the root cause of how your concerns manifested.

Having lived and worked as a counsellor in the UK and Australia, I know firsthand how much courage it takes to build a life away from home. My practice specialises in supporting expats, travellers, and professionals who work away from home, with a focus on the unique strains this places on relationships and parenting. Whether you are dealing with isolation, being away from your support network, or trying to support your family, I am here to help.

Having different tools in my toolbox means I am able to work collaboratively with you using the theoretical approaches that best support your needs:

Person-Centred: Provides a space where you feel accepted so you can speak freely, leading to change.
Psychodynamic: Explores how past experiences unconsciously impact your choices today.
Existential: Explores questions about life, choice, and responsibility to help you work out what is important to you and how you belong.
CBT: Examines how thoughts, feelings, and behaviours are connected, helping with anxiety, depression, OCD, trauma, phobias, and social anxiety.

I provide a safe, neurodiversity-affirming space where you can be totally yourself. Whether you are exploring your gender, sexuality, or cultural identity, I offer supportive, non-judgmental care. No matter what you’re going through, you don't have to go through it alone.

Member organisations

Registered / Accredited

Registered / Accredited

Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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
