About me
I am a dual US-UK citizen and spent many years in a demanding corporate environment before qualifying as a UKCP and BACP registered psychotherapist. Having lived and worked in the UK for over 22 years, as well as abroad, I bring a considered understanding of psychological pressures across professional, cultural, and personal contexts. Many clients are outwardly confident and performing well, yet feel overwhelmed or burnt out. I work with leaders and professionals in demanding roles, as well as older adolescents in high-achieving academic environments.
As a warm, experienced practitioner, my approach is to provide a discrete, responsive and non-judgmental outlet.
I encourage you to take time in finding a therapist with whom you feel a sense of trust and connection, as the quality of the working relationship is imperative to meaningful change.

I work with individuals aged 16 and over.

Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) is a leading professional body for the education, training and regulation of psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors. Its register is accredited by the government's Professional Standards Authority.
As part of its commitment to protect the public, it works to improve access to psychotherapy, to support and disseminate research, to improve standards and to respond effectively to complaints against its members.
UKCP standards cover the range of different psychotherapies. Registration is obtained by training or accrediting with one of its member organisations, or by holding a European Certificate in Psychotherapy. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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.
