About me

After a fulfilling and diverse career leading and supporting teams, the global pandemic inspired me to reassess my values and focus on work that aligns with my desire to serve others. This reflection led me to train as a person-centered therapist, where I now help all kinds of people navigate life's challenges and achieve personal growth.

Drawing from my extensive background in mentoring and empowerment, I integrate these strengths into my therapeutic practice. I am committed to offering a compassionate, judgment-free space for clients facing issues such as professional burnout, stress, grief, childhood trauma, depression, anxiety, and other personal difficulties. Additionally, I have a deep understanding of the complexities neurodiversity can introduce to family dynamics.

If you feel I may be of help, please visit my website or reach out to schedule a free 20-minute initial consultation. I look forward to supporting you on your journey toward healing and growth.

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.
