About me
Navigating life can be challenging. Trying to carry on while feeling disconnected or overwhelmed can be exhausting. Often we are so busy getting through the day that we don't have time to pay attention to how we're actually feeling...
You may be struggling with ongoing anxiety, low mood, grief, burnout or work-related stress. Perhaps you've experienced a difficult or traumatic life event or are facing a sudden change. Whilst these experiences can be common-place, they often leave us feeling lost.
I provide a space where you can put down some of what you've been carrying; a space to slow down, give yourself time to breathe, reflect and be heard. By exploring what may be happening for you we can work together to help you feel reconnected with life and your sense of self.
Through understanding and gentle observation I aim to support in fostering self-awareness, growth and long-lasting change.
Growth can look different to every individual. Whether it's boundary setting, learning to make space for self-care and compassion or making peace with / letting go of something that has been weighing on you.
By making sense of your experience and creating room to process your emotions I believe in every client's potential for healing and change.
If you would like to understand more about how I support clients or have any further questions about working together, please reach out to book a free 15-minute consultation. No obligation, just an opportunity for you to begin to find your feed and discover whether we may be 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.
