About me
Hello and welcome.
I am a fully qualified Couples Counsellor and experienced Psychotherapist with several years of experience supporting couples through relationship challenges. I previously worked as a Relate Counsellor and hold a Master's Degree in Relationship Therapy.
I work with couples at all stages of their relationship, whether you are recovering from an affair or betrayal, experiencing ongoing conflict, communication difficulties, navigating major life changes, feeling disconnected from each other, where intimacy has changed, whether through a lack of physical contact or differences in desire, considering separation, or wanting to strengthen your relationship.
As an integrative therapist, I tailor my approach to the unique needs of each couple. My aim is to provide a safe, balanced and non-judgemental space where both partners feel heard, understood and supported. Together, we explore the patterns that may be keeping you stuck and work towards greater understanding, healthier communication and meaningful change.
I offer weekly or fortnightly Couples Therapy, as well as Intensive Couples Therapy for couples who would benefit from working more deeply over a shorter period. Sessions are available both in person and online.

Experience
I specialise in working with couples and have several years' experience supporting couples in the UK and internationally.

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.

Further information
Relationships are an important part of our lives, but they can also be challenged by stress, change and difficult experiences. When communication breaks down or trust has been damaged, it can be difficult to know how to move forward.
I specialise in working with couples and hold a Master’s degree in Relationship Therapy, having previously worked as a Relate counsellor. As an integrative therapist, I adapt my approach to meet the needs of each couple, recognising that every relationship is unique.
I have experience supporting couples with a wide range of relationship issues, including affairs and betrayal, communication difficulties, intimacy and sexual relationship issues, the impact of previous relationships, family dynamics, and major life changes. I also support couples where individual experiences, such as anxiety, trauma, bereavement or work-related stress, are affecting their relationship.
Whatever brings you to therapy, my role is to help you better understand one another, explore the patterns that may be keeping you stuck, and support you in finding new ways of communicating and relating to each other.
I am passionate about providing a warm, respectful and inclusive service where both partners feel valued, heard and supported. I welcome couples from all backgrounds and relationship styles.
I am passionate about my work and the service I provide. I welcome clients from all backgrounds, and I am dedicated to providing a warm, non-judgemental, and inclusive service.
Before we meet, I will send you my Counselling Agreement, which includes information about confidentiality, data protection, the counselling process and what you can expect from working together. I will also ask you to complete a questionnaire before your first appointment. This helps me gain an understanding of your relationship, identify the issues you would like to address, and prepare for our work together.
If you are attending weekly or fortnightly Couples Therapy, our first session will focus on understanding your relationship, exploring the challenges that have brought you to counselling, and identifying the goals you would like to work towards. This assessment helps us agree on the most appropriate therapeutic approach and ensures that both partners have the opportunity to feel heard and understood.
If you are attending Intensive Couples Therapy, the information you provide beforehand allows me to prepare in greater depth before we meet. This means we can begin working on your priorities from the outset and make the best use of our extended time together over one or two days.
I offer face-to-face sessions from my private counselling room in an attached cottage near Moffat, Dumfries & Galloway (approximately 37 miles from Carlisle). The peaceful countryside setting provides a calm, private and welcoming environment, with parking available on site. I also offer online Couples Therapy and online Intensive Couples Therapy.
