About me
Therapy is essentially, having conversations that gradually uncover your unconscious life that drives 80% of your behaviours and choices. Once seen, you now have the choice, and will learn the skills, to drive your future forward in a new, more aligned and helpful way.
When you are searching this huge pool of therapists, how do you tell which one will work for you? The bottom line is, how safe do you feel, do you like their style, do you get a sense that they can guide you in the right direction. So please be encouraged to ask about them, ask about the results they see for their clients. Be informed, it’s a collaboration not and you vs them. It’s okay to find a therapist that seems relatable. We are trained and skilled to keep strong ethical boundaries and confidentiality!
Main areas I work with: People who want to manage toxic relationships, difficult marriages, challenging partnerships and stale careers. There is much work to be done around GLP-1’s and I have a client base who are navigating the mental health aspect of their weight loss journey. Research into the benefits of using weight loss medication for mental health is very early days and certainly a topic in science to follow closely. My third area leans into sport and exercise psychology, learning how to use visualisation and manifestation correctly to rewire your brain to enhance performance and major lifestyle change.
I’m a Psychodynamic Psychotherapist with a background in academic/research psychology. I also have experience in sport, exercise and health science whilst working for over 20 years with young adults, entrepreneurs, athletes and individuals in private practice. I offer psychological therapy that responds to each person's unique needs and goals. We will meet online, remain structured but flexible in a way that suits a modern lifestyle.
I'm trained in a range of evidence-based therapies, so you can expect tangible results. My own practice is deeply rooted in Jungian theory.
What To Expect: A warm and easy style. I spent nearly 10 years with the ‘not quite right’ therapist thinking it would be fine. It was not! I’m committed to ensuring every person I meet feels as though they either left a discovery/intro call better informed and/or ready to take that next step and start therapy. We are only ever one decision away from a very different life.
We can discuss what this may look like for you. Please do get in touch so we can have an introductory session, give you a chance to ask questions and explore if this is right for you.

Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC) is a professional association, representing the profession of psychoanalytic psychotherapy.
The organisation is itself made up of fourteen member organisations and BPC accredits the trainings of its member organisations. An individual who qualifies from one of these trainings is then eligible for entry into the BPC's register.
BPC registrants are governed by a code of ethics, a policy of continuing professional development, a statement on confidentiality and a complaints procedure. The BPC is a Member Society of the European Federation for Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy in the Public Sector (EFPP). Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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.
