About me
Life can sometimes feel overwhelming, even when from the outside everything seems to be going well. You may be struggling to process a traumatic event, experiencing anxiety or depression, navigating challenging relationships, parenting, identity, or simply feeling stuck and unsure about what comes next.
As a psychodynamic counsellor, with 10 years client experience, I offer a relational, compassionate and non-judgemental space where you can slow down, make sense of what you’re experiencing, and explore what may be happening beneath the surface.
Perhaps you’re finding yourself reacting in ways you don’t fully understand, repeating patterns in relationships, feeling disconnected from yourself, or struggling with expectations of who you feel you should be. Sometimes we know something isn’t quite right without being able to put our finger on exactly what it is.
Psychodynamic counselling can help us explore how past experiences, relationships and ways of coping may continue to influence how we think, feel and relate to ourselves and others today. Together, we can develop a deeper understanding of these patterns and consider whether there are different ways of approaching life and relationships.
You don't need to have everything figured out before coming to counselling. You can simply arrive with whatever is troubling you, and we can begin there.
My aim is to offer a genuine, collaborative relationship where you can feel heard, understood and able to explore the parts of your experience that may be difficult to talk about elsewhere.

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.
