About me

Couples Therapist & Individual Counsellor | Online & East London

Couples therapy · Communication · Conflict · Intimacy · Trust · Relationship patterns

Individual counselling · Anxiety · Low self-worth · Grief · Life transitions

Something brought you here, and that matters.

Perhaps you and your partner keep having the same argument, feel increasingly disconnected, or aren't sure how to find your way back to each other.

Or perhaps you're coming to therapy for yourself. You may be feeling anxious, overwhelmed, struggling with your self-worth, grieving a loss, or trying to navigate a period of change.

I work with both couples and individuals, offering two distinct types of therapeutic support.

Couples Therapy
Relationships can become stuck in patterns that are difficult to change without support. I work with couples at different stages of their relationships, helping with:

Communication difficulties and repeated conflict
Emotional disconnection and intimacy
Trust and rebuilding connection
Unhealthy or recurring relationship patterns
Marriage preparation
Major transitions such as moving in together or becoming parents

Couples therapy isn't about deciding who is right or wrong. I offer a space where both partners can feel heard, understand what's happening between them, and begin developing healthier ways of relating to one another.

Individual Counselling
Individual therapy gives you a space that is entirely your own. You don't need to arrive knowing exactly what you want to work on we can make sense of that together. I regularly support people experiencing:

Anxiety and overwhelm
Low self-esteem and self-worth
Grief and loss
Relationship difficulties

Life transitions, including career changes, parenthood, moving and separation
My approach is warm, non-judgmental and collaborative. I aim to create a space where you can talk openly, understand yourself more deeply and explore what might need to change.

How I Work
I'm a qualified counsellor and couples therapist offering online therapy as well as in-person sessions in East London.

I hold a BA (Hons) in Counselling, an Advanced Diploma in Couples Therapy and a Diploma in Counselling for Depression (CfD), and I am a registered member of the BACP.

Training, qualifications & experience

  • BA (Hons) in Counselling, Metanoia Institute/Middlesex University
  • Clinical Diploma in Person-Centred Counselling, Metanoia Institute
  • Advanced Diploma in Couples Therapy 
  • Counselling for Depression,   Metanoia Institute

I hold a BA in Person-Centred Counselling, an Advanced Diploma in Couples Therapy, and specialist training in Counselling for Depression (CfD). I've worked with the Mental Health charity Mind and IAPT services, and before counselling I spent over a decade in the corporate and music industries, which gives me a real world, grounded perspective that I bring into my work.

Mindfulness and somatic experiencing are concepts that I am drawn to in my personal journey, elements of which are reflected in my work.

I grew up multi-culturally in London, which has sparked a huge interest in diversity over the years, as well as particular intersectionality and struggles with belonging to different minority groups.

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.

Accredited register membership

British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
Accredited Register Scheme

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.
