About me
If you’ve found your way here, something in your life may feel heavier, more unsettled, or harder to manage than it once was. You may have been coping on your own for a long time, but have reached a point where that no longer feels possible in the same way. Whether or not you can fully put it into words, I can support you in making sense of what you’re experiencing and beginning to find a way forward that feels steadier and more supportive.
I offer a warm, steady, and accepting presence, alongside a calm, respectful, and collaborative environment where you can deepen your understanding of yourself, reconnect with your sense of worth, and explore ways of being that feel more true to who you are.
My approach is person-centred, relational, and trauma-informed, which means our work is guided by what you need and shaped at a pace that feels right for you. I place great importance on recognising and respecting your individuality, including your identity, experiences, and perspective, and I aim to offer a space where those differences are genuinely valued. Everyone relates to the world in their own way, and I work with that uniqueness rather than against it.
I have significant experience working with a diverse range of clients, including those who are autistic, ADHDers, or otherwise identify as neurodivergent. I’m passionate about supporting people from all walks of life, including LGBTQ+ communities and a range of class backgrounds.
I am currently taking on new clients.
Training, qualifications & experience
My training includes a first class honours degree from the University of Central Lancashire and a Level 7 Postgraduate Diploma with Merit from the University of Leeds, alongside counselling training at the University of Cumbria and the Open University. In addition to this academic foundation, I also bring several years of experience supporting clients from a wide range of backgrounds and with diverse life experiences. I recognise that our identities, relationships and lived experiences shape how we navigate the world, and honouring that intersectionality is a cornerstone of my practice. As a registered BACP member, I’m committed to creating a safe, respectful and confidential space where you feel heard and understood. Through regular supervision and continuing professional development, I ensure my practice remains ethical, thoughtful and grounded in best practice, with your well-being at the heart of our work together.
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.

Additional information
I believe support should feel accessible, so I work within a sliding scale of fees between £30 and £55 per session, depending on your individual situation. I offer a 20 minute intro call which is free, and with no obligation to continue. During the call we will agree your fee collaboratively, based on your own financial circumstances, and how frequently we will meet, so you can be confident of the costs should you choose to begin working together.
