About me
Taking your first step starting therapy is a brave decision, and I commend you for taking this step towards positive change. If you're ready to embark on your path to healing and growth, I invite you to schedule a free consultation. I offer in-person and remote counselling via Zoom or Teams, so we can connect from the comfort of your own space. Together, we’ll embark on a transformative journey towards greater clarity, resilience, and fulfilment.
I have experience helping people with a wide range of issues, including depression, anxiety, low mood, ADHD, ASD, trauma, anger, work or study stress, and relationship difficulties. I also have extensive experience supporting clients facing challenges such as abuse (emotional, physical, and sexual). Additionally, during my time as a therapist for charities, I supported people in vulnerable life situations, such as experiencing poverty, disability, and discrimination. These experiences taught me the importance of not only helping with resilience but also empowering people to take control of their lives again. I understand the complexities of mental health and am committed to providing personalised support that meets you where you are.
I understand first-hand the challenges that come with mental health. I have faced my own battles with anxiety and know how overwhelming it can feel. My journey led me to North Wales, where I studied for an MSc in Counselling for two years. During this time, I discovered how important it was to find a supportive community and build meaningful connections. I also developed a passion for bouldering, which became a vital part of managing my anxiety. The physical challenge and focus required in bouldering helped me to stay grounded and in the moment, and the sense of accomplishment I felt after each climb was a powerful boost to my self-confidence. The community I found through bouldering became a source of comfort and strength, showing me the value of finding support and connection when navigating difficult emotions.
My Approach:
My approach combines my listed therapeutic styles, utilizing aspects that best suit you as a unique individual. I believe in the power of integrative therapy, where we draw from various therapeutic methods to create a collaborative and holistic healing experience. Identifying what combination works for you is a collaborative process that involves your active participation, ensuring the therapy is tailored to your needs. Through a compassionate and understanding relationship, I provide a safe space for you to explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences, guiding you towards deeper self-awareness and positive change.
Compassion is at the heart of my work as a therapist. I believe it’s essential to create a warm and empathetic space where you feel truly heard and understood. I’m dedicated to helping individuals overcome obstacles, discover their inner strength, and thrive. I bring a range of tools to our sessions, ensuring you receive personalised care that meets your unique needs and goals.
I’m also deeply committed to continually building my skills and knowledge through ongoing Continuing Professional Development (CPD). This dedication ensures that I am always bringing the best and most up-to-date practices to our work together.
How I Can Help:
Whether you’re facing mental health challenges, navigating life transitions, or seeking personal growth, I’m here to support you every step of the way. Together, we’ll work to identify your goals, explore your strengths, and develop practical strategies to enhance your well-being.
Thank you for considering my services. I look forward to the privilege of supporting you on your journey towards a more fulfilling and meaningful life.

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.
