About me
I'm an integrative counsellor and coach, working with clients aged 16 and over. I offer short and long-term therapy tailored to individual needs, preferences and goals.
I work both in-person (Barkingside, South Woodford, Buckhurst Hill and Wanstead) and online.
I can provide flexible sessions to fit around shift work and changing schedules.
Training, qualifications & experience
Before qualifying as an Integrative Counsellor and Coach my career was in Education. I worked in a variety of mainstream and SEND settings as a teacher, SENDCo, outreach and advisory teacher. I am also a Parenting Coach and run Parent Groups and 1-1 sessions.
My work supports those navigating a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, stress, neurodiversity, low mood, self-compassion, self-care, bereavement, anger, conflict, identity, abuse, life transitions, parenting and relationship difficulties. Known for my calm and grounded presence, I offer a safe and respectful space where people feel genuinely heard and supported.
With a deep understanding of how complex and overwhelming life can feel, I bring empathy, curiosity and flexibility to my work. My integrative approach draws from a range of counselling and coaching models, allowing me to adapt the style to meet each client’s unique personality and circumstances. This makes my work highly responsive and attuned to what feels right for the person in front of me.
Clients often describe feeling safe and accepted in our sessions - something I believe is essential for building trust and enabling meaningful, lasting change. My therapeutic style is collaborative and empowering, helping people explore difficult experiences at their own pace, without judgement.
I hold a BAEd and a Postgraduate Diploma in Integrative Counselling and Coaching from the University of East London. I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and work in accordance with its Ethical Framework.
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.
