About me
Do you find yourself overthinking everything, struggling to switch off, or relying on certain habits just to cope with how you feel?
You might feel stuck in patterns you don’t fully understand, reacting in ways that don’t feel like you, or finding it hard to manage your emotions when things become overwhelming. At times, it might feel like you’re constantly trying to keep things together on the outside, while struggling internally. You might also find yourself turning to things like food, alcohol, or avoidance just to get through difficult moments.
I work with people who feel this way, helping them make sense of what’s going on beneath the surface. Together, we explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences to understand not just what is happening, but why, especially when the same patterns keep repeating.
You don’t need to have everything figured out before starting therapy. You might just know that something doesn’t feel right, or that you’re tired of coping in the same ways, even if part of you doesn’t know how to do things differently yet.
My approach is warm, collaborative, and non-judgemental. I won’t tell you what to do or assume to know your story. Instead, I aim to create a space where you feel safe enough to explore things at your own pace, while also gently supporting you to look a little deeper and begin to understand yourself in new ways.
Over time, this can help you feel more in control of your emotions, more confident in yourself, and less stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, so you’re not just getting through things, but starting to feel differently within yourself.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a fully qualified counsellor trained in Integrative Counselling and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP)
This means I draw from a range of therapeutic approaches, including person-centred, psychodynamic, and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), alongside more solution-focused ways of working. Rather than using a “one size fits all” approach, I tailor therapy to suit you and what you need.
Depending on what you’re going through, our work might involve exploring past experiences, understanding patterns in your thoughts and behaviours, or focusing on practical ways to cope with difficult emotions and situations in the present.
I offer in-person, online, and telephone counselling, either on a short-term basis or open-ended, depending on what feels right for you.
BSc (Hons) Counselling
As a registered member of the BACP, my work is guided by their ethical framework, and I regularly engage in continued professional development to ensure I work safely, ethically, and in a way that best supports my clients.
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.
