About me
Are You or a Loved One Struggling with Mental Health?
Life can feel overwhelming at times. Whether you're experiencing anxiety, low mood, or trying to cope with a stressful or traumatic event, even the simplest daily tasks can begin to feel exhausting.
Perhaps this sounds familiar…
-
You’ve recently been diagnosed with a mental or physical health condition and feel unsure about what to do next.
-
You’ve noticed a loved one withdrawing from daily life pulling away from family and friends and you’re worried about how to support them.
If so, you’re not alone. And most importantly, things can get better.
Everyone deserves to feel seen, heard, and understood especially during life’s most difficult moments. Having the right support can make all the difference: someone who listens without judgement, offers compassion, and provides practical tools to help you move forward.
How I Can Help
As a dedicated Counsellor and Psychotherapist, I support individuals and families in regaining balance, confidence, and quality of life. I draw from a range of evidence-based approaches, including:
-
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
-
Person-Centred Therapy
-
Play Therapy
-
Solution-Focused Therapy
-
Child Based Psychotherapy approaches
- Walk and Talk Therapy
- Motivational Interviewing
- Transactional Analysis (TA)
With extensive experience in interactive play therapy and a person-centred approach, I tailor each session to meet your individual needs. I specialise in supporting clients experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, and related challenges guiding you toward healing and personal growth with empathy and care.
Why Work With Me?
Personalised Care
Your story matters. I take the time to truly understand your experiences and tailor support to your goals.
Proven Therapeutic Approaches
The methods I use are grounded in research and designed to help you process the past, strengthen resilience, and improve overall wellbeing.
Compassionate, Safe Support
I provide a confidential, non-judgemental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings and develop practical coping strategies.
You don’t have to navigate this journey alone. Let’s work together to restore your wellbeing and help you move toward a healthier, more fulfilling life.
Training, qualifications & experience
I hold a degree in Counselling & Psychotherapy Professional Practice and am an accredited member of both the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP) and the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS), working in line with their ethical frameworks. I maintain a current enhanced DBS disclosure and comprehensive professional insurance, ensuring I practise safely, ethically, and responsibly at all times.
Alongside my core training, I have undertaken extensive CPD training in child psychotherapy, including a clinical placement with Place2Be. During this placement, I worked therapeutically with children and young people within a school setting, supporting a wide range of emotional and psychological needs such as anxiety, low mood, behavioural challenges, and trauma-related difficulties. This experience strengthened my ability to build safe, trusting relationships and deliver developmentally appropriate interventions through play-based and child-centred approaches.
I am deeply committed to continuous professional development, particularly in relation to working with children and young people. I regularly undertake further training to ensure my practice remains current, reflective, and responsive to the evolving needs of the children, individuals, and families I support.
At the heart of my work is a genuine belief that every individual deserves support tailored to their unique experiences. I provide a warm, supportive, and non-judgemental space where clients feel truly heard and understood — empowering them to move forward with confidence, resilience, and improved emotional wellbeing.
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.
