About me
Are you finding it difficult to make time for yourself?
Life can sometimes feel overwhelming. You may be juggling work, family responsibilities and the demands of everyday life whilst trying to meet the expectations of others – and yourself.
Perhaps you're experiencing stress, burnout, perfectionism, anxiety, low self-esteem or feeling stuck in patterns that no longer feel helpful. You may find yourself putting others first, being self-critical or struggling to switch off and relax.
How can I help?
Therapy offers a space to focus on yourself and explore what is important to you. Together, we can make sense of your experiences, identify your strengths and work towards the changes that feel meaningful to you.
I work with a wide range of issues and tailor my approach to each individual. Whether you are seeking support through a difficult period, wanting to build self-confidence, improve self-care or understand yourself more deeply, I aim to support you in finding a way forward.
What can you expect?
I offer a warm, accepting and non-judgemental space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings and experiences at a pace that feels right for you.
My aim is for you to feel listened to, understood and taken seriously, whilst developing greater awareness of yourself and your strengths.
About me
My name is Joyti and I am a qualified integrative psychotherapist. I work primarily from a person-centred perspective, which means I believe you are the expert on your own life.
Alongside this, I draw on solution-focused techniques to help clients identify what is already working, recognise their strengths and move towards their preferred future.
I also have an interest in self-compassion, which explores how we can develop a kinder and more compassionate relationship with ourselves.
My approach
As an integrative psychotherapist, I can adapt my approach to meet your individual needs. Every person is different, and I believe therapy should reflect this.
My work is grounded in empathy, acceptance and collaboration, creating a supportive space where you can explore your experiences and make meaningful changes in your life.
Alongside my work as a psychotherapist, I am also a qualified yoga teacher. This has strengthened my interest in self-care, self-compassion and supporting people to reconnect with themselves in a meaningful 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.
