About me
How I can help
I offer online counselling for adults - including young people, men, and women adjusting to major life changes - providing a calm, supportive, and confidential space to talk things through. You don’t need to know exactly what to say or where to start - we can take things at a pace that feels comfortable for you.
Reaching out for support can feel like a big step. My aim is to help you feel safe, listened to and respected, so you can begin to make sense of what’s been affecting you and what you might want to change.
Whether you're looking for short-term support around a specific challenge, or a more open-ended space to explore things more deeply, I work flexibly and collaboratively to tailor our sessions to what feels right for you. My aim is to help you make sense of what's affecting and support you in moving forward.
I work in a way that is mindful of how past experiences can affect how we feel in the present. I will never push you to talk about anything before you feel ready, and your sense of safety is always my priority.
The first session
It’s very normal to feel nervous before your first session. We'll talk about what has brought you to counselling and what you hope to achieve. I'll ask for some basic information to ensure our work is safe and clear. You're always in control of what you share, and there is no pressure to go into detail before you feel ready.
Training, qualifications & experience
I retrained as a counsellor in my 30s, bringing lived experience alongside professional training. I qualified in 2020 and have worked in the NHS, community mental health, and EAP settings. I hold a First-Class Honours degree in Psychology and am a qualified Integrative Counsellor.
I am trauma-informed and value understanding how past experiences shape present challenges. I aim to provide an approachable, grounded and compassionate space for you, whether navigating work-related burnout, major life transitions, or the long-term impact of earlier life experiences.
Sessions
All sessions are online, offering flexibility, privacy and a safe space from your own home. If you'd like to take the first step, you're welcome to get in touch - I aim to respond within 48 hours.
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.
