About me

Psychotherapist in Leamington Spa, Warwickshire (CV32). Featured in the i Paper, Psychologies magazine, Glamour and VICE. People come to see me for a whole range of different reasons but I have particular experience with survivors of sexual violence, queer and LGBTQIA+ people, those wanting to process difficult childhoods and intergenerational trauma, as well as anyone in the middle of a life transition or who is struggling with recurring unhelpful patterns in their relationships and lives, perfectionism or burnout. Others aren’t quite sure what’s drawing them to therapy. We can figure it out together.

Training, qualifications & experience

My background includes a rigorous five-year postgrad training in psychotherapy at master's level 7. I’ve also worked within the NHS as a psychotherapist for King’s College Hospital’s Sexual Assault Referral Centre, with dancers and musicians at Trinity Laban Conservatoire, and at a highly regarded community therapy service.

Alongside my clinical work, I’m a writer and expert commentator on psychotherapy, sexuality, sexual violence and relationships, with by-lines and interviews in publications including Vice, Stylist, the Independent, Women’s Health, Glamour, Teen Vogue, and Dazed.

Member organisations

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

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).
