About me
Since 2017 I support clients in navigating challenges such as low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, loneliness, abuse, trauma, low self-confidence, menopause, loss, stress. With warmth and empathy I provide a compassionate, non-judgmental space where you can thrive and explore your thoughts and emotions freely. Maybe you just want to talk to somebody who listens, to clear your mind. You might find it difficult to define what made you seek counselling. Perhaps a sense of emptiness, isolation or feeling that you can make more of your life. We can figure this out together.
My goal is to help you to develop a deeper understanding of yourself, enhance trust in yourself, to support you in finding your options for change and foster a sense of empowerment. In our sessions, you are the expert of your own experience. I provide a safe and empathetic environment where you can explore your thoughts, feelings and concerns without fear or judgement.
Though my focus lies in counselling women, I welcome people with other gender identities who think I might be the right counsellor for them.
Getting started with therapy might be daunting for you. Choosing a therapist is very personal. Because it is a relationship, you need to feel comfortable with the therapist you choose. Text or call me to arrange for a free initial phone or online conversation.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am working with clients since 2017 and had the privilege of working with women from all walks of life. From 2018 to 2021 I worked with an organisation that specialises in counselling domestic abuse survivors.
I regularly engage in professional development activities to stay informed, enhance my skills and ensure that I provide the most effective and compassionate work. Currently I am learning more about menopause and mental health
My qualifications are:
- BA (Hons) in Person-Centred Counselling. (Middlesex University, London)
- Diploma in Person-Centred Counselling – Metanoia Institute London, accredited by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP)
- Certificate in Systemic Coaching – BR-Systemberatung – by the quality standards of the European Coaching Association (ECA).
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.

Further information
I offer Walk and Talk therapy in Ealing. London’s 3000 parks can support you to boost your mental health. Instead of sitting in a room, we will be walking alongside. You will determine the pace, decide if you would like to sit down for a while or engage with your surroundings. Nature is open-minded and helps you to connect to your emotions and experiences. Walk and talk therapy combines therapy and exercise with the benefit of being in nature. The NHS recommends walking for your physical health. In addition, scientific research has shown that walking is beneficial for your mental health.
