About me
Perhaps you're the person who usually holds everything together. You manage work, relationships and everyday life, but underneath it all you're exhausted, overwhelmed or constantly overthinking.
You may be struggling with anxiety, low mood, burnout or feeling emotionally overloaded. Perhaps you've spent years masking, people-pleasing or adapting yourself to fit in, and you're beginning to wonder what life might feel like if you didn't have to work so hard at being “okay”.
You might also be questioning whether neurodivergence could help explain some of your experiences — feeling different from other people, becoming easily overwhelmed, struggling with expectations, or finding that things which seem manageable for others take enormous effort for you.
You don't need to arrive at therapy knowing exactly what's wrong or what you want to change. We can start wherever you are.
I offer a calm, steady and collaborative space where you can slow down, make sense of what's happening beneath the surface, and explore the parts of yourself that may have been overlooked while you've been busy coping.
Together, we can work towards understanding your needs, recognising patterns that no longer serve you, becoming kinder towards yourself, and finding ways of living that feel more sustainable and more like you.
I'm a BACP accredited counsellor offering online counselling and face-to-face sessions in Greenwich. My approach is warm, integrative and neurodiversity-affirming, and I welcome people who may feel sensitive, analytical, emotional, different, or simply unsure where to begin.
Training, qualifications & experience
I hold a Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling (CPCAB Level 5) and I'm an accredited member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy). I work in accordance with the BACP Ethical Framework and undertake ongoing professional development.
My experience includes working in community counselling services and private practice, supporting adults with anxiety, depression, burnout, identity questions, relationship patterns and long-standing emotional difficulties.
I've undertaken additional training in trauma-informed practice and neurodiversity-affirming approaches, and I'm particularly interested in supporting people who feel overwhelmed, out of step with others, or disconnected from themselves.
I work integratively, drawing on Person-Centred, Psychodynamic, Transpersonal and Internal Family Systems approaches where appropriate. Rather than expecting you to fit a particular model, I shape the work around you, your experiences and what you need from therapy.
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.
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.

Further information
You don't need to know exactly what you want to talk about before starting therapy.
Our first sessions can be a chance to slow things down and understand what's been happening for you. We can explore what brings you to counselling, what feels difficult at the moment, and what you'd like to be different.
I won't expect you to have everything neatly explained. If you're used to analysing everything, keeping busy, looking after other people or masking how you're really feeling, it can take time to notice what you actually need.
My approach is collaborative and gentle. I'll offer thoughts and reflections where they're helpful, but you remain in control of what we explore and at what pace.
For neurodivergent clients, this might include exploring masking, sensory or emotional overwhelm, self-understanding, identity, relationships, boundaries and the impact of trying to fit into environments that don't work well for you.
For others, therapy may focus more on anxiety, low mood, burnout, self-esteem, relationships or patterns that have become difficult to change.
Whether we meet online or face to face in Greenwich, my aim is to offer a space where you can be yourself without having to perform, explain everything perfectly or pretend that you're coping better than you are.
