About me
My journey in Psychology and Psychotherapy started around 20 years ago. Since then, I have worked in a range of settings in the field of Mental Health, in both the NHS and private sector, supporting individuals and organisations to improve wellbeing. I am interested in supporting change and helping people to adapt and recover from challenges to better navigate distress.
You might be feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply not quite yourself, navigating anxiety, burnout, low mood, or a sense of disconnection. Perhaps you’re looking for space to explore what’s going on beneath the surface, to make sense of things, and to feel more grounded. My clients often come to therapy wanting greater clarity, confidence, and change that feels meaningful and lasting. I offer a supportive, collaborative space to help you better understand yourself and your experiences, and move forward with purpose, resilience, and self-compassion.
My approach is integrative and tailored to you, drawing on a range of evidence-based therapies to meet you where you are. My work draws on approaches including CBT, ACT, DBT, Narrative and Schema Therapy, as well as interpersonal, relational therapeutic perspectives and contemporary Psychotherapy. Through this broad lens we can work together to make sene of your experience. I work with client across the lifespan from age 11+.
Reaching out for support can feel like a big step, but you don’t have to figure everything out on your own. Therapy is a space for you to feel heard, understood, and supported without judgment. I offer a free initial consultation so we can get to know each other, talk about what’s going on for you, and see if working together feels like the right fit.

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.
