About me
I’ve practised for over ten years as a psychodynamic therapist, working with self-esteem, self-sabotage, relationships, trauma, abuse and neglect, depression, anxiety, addiction, disordered eating, and questions around gender and sexuality.
We will explore the choices you make, both conscious and unconscious. We’ll think about your dreams and ambitions, how you can help yourself, and the ways you might get in your own way.
We’ll look at your constellation of relationships: who lifts you, who drains you, and who gets under your skin. We’ll think about how comfortable you are with closeness and separation, and whether there are unmet needs that still shape your life.
We’ll look at your past in light of your present and notice whether patterns are repeating. We’ll also think about the future you want and what you’re doing now to move towards it.
We’ll think about what feeds your soul: time in nature, movement, music, sport, writing, art, or whatever helps you feel more like yourself. We’ll explore how you look after yourself, what gives you energy, and how you engage with the world around you.
I believe therapy works best when there is a clear frame. After our initial consultation, we’ll agree on a structure for our work together. We’ll think about how many sessions feel right and create a shared map from beginning to end.
From the start, I’ll ask where you’d like to be by the end of our work, so we can hold that in mind while staying open to whatever comes up along the way.

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.
