About me
Emotional distress can affect anyone, and at times you may find it difficult to manage anxiety, low mood, relationship issues, or major life changes on your own. As an integrative counsellor, I draw on a range of therapeutic approaches to meet your individual needs.
I can help you to:
- Gain clarity about what you’re feeling and why
- Identify and change unhelpful patterns of thinking or behaviour
- Develop healthier coping strategies
- Improve emotional regulation and resilience
- Strengthen your sense of self and confidence in decision-making
Whether you're looking for short-term support or longer-term exploration, I offer a confidential, supportive space where you can talk openly and begin to move forward.
I can offer:
- Short-term therapy (between 6-12 sessions).
- Longer term/open-ended therapy for continuous support and to explore some deeper seated issues.
- Walk and talk sessions in nature.
I have a very broad experience with working adults and young people, in private practice face to face in Lewes and online.
I am experienced in working with a range of issues including :
- Anxiety/stress
- Panic
- Depression
- Grief & bereavement
- Low self-esteem/self-worth
- Relationship breakdown
- Separation & divorce
- Work/career stress
- Coping with life changes
- Self-harm
- Parent/child relationship
To enquire please email, call or text and we can have a chat to discuss your needs.
Training, qualifications & experience
Alongside Private Practise I am a therapist for Wellbeing in the Arts and previously worked as a school and college counsellor for YMCA Dialogue and as an honorary counsellor for St Peter and St James Hospice.
Previous to my counselling training I worked as a musician and music teacher. I still enjoy being a musician.
I hold a Post-Graduate Diploma in Humanistic Psychotherapeutic Counselling and am registered with the British Association of Counselling Practitioners (MBACP)
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.
