About me
Are you feeling stuck, anxious or overwhelmed? Do you find it hard to find someone to listen to you without judgement? Have you been surprised by your emotional reaction to a situation?
I'm an integrative counsellor, working with issues such as depression, anxiety, work problems, self worth issues, low confidence, low self-esteem, relationship problems, conflict resolution and communication, ADHD, autism, gender issues, family issues, communicating better and boundaries, addictions, alcoholism, perfectionism, self critical, shame and negative thinking.
I am able to support clients with a range of issues. You may have separated from a partner, fear a relationship breaking down, not fitting in with colleagues, or experiencing anger issues. Perhaps you feel like you are not coping, have a fear of social activities or suicidal thoughts. Maybe you are wanting the way things are to end, worried about self harm, or sometimes you just feel like you want to just disappear.
Counselling saved my life and this drives my passion for helping others to form new habits, feel heard and not judged. I start with an assessment appointment where we talk about what is happening for you and how I can help.
I provide a safe and confidential therapeutic space for us to explore the difficulties that you are facing. I am an integrative counsellor which means I can use a range of modalities including person centred, psychodynamic, CBT and Gestalt which are tailored to you as an individual.
You can expect me to be structured and honest, and use a combination of empathy, psychoeducation and gentle challenges to bring your unconscious patterns into your awareness to help you to make changes to your life or perhaps help you to better accept yourself.
If you have any questions, or you would like to book an assessment with me, then I welcome you to get in touch today.

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.
