About me
Counselling for Children, Young People & Adults
Starting therapy can feel like a big step, but you're not alone in it. I offer a warm, calm and non-judgemental space where you (or your child) can talk openly, feel heard, safe and supported, and start making sense of whatever's going on, at your own pace.
I work with children, young people and adults, using a pluralistic approach, which means I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all method. Together, we’ll figure out what works best for you, whether that’s talking things through, using creative tools, or finding practical ways to cope.
Whether you’re struggling with trauma, feeling anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, or just need someone to talk to, I’m here to help, at your pace and in your own way. Together, we’ll build a therapeutic relationship based on trust, respect, and collaboration, because you are the expert in your own life.
I offer face-to-face sessions, but also online and telephone. I specialise in low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, PTSD and have specialist training and experience working with survivors of domestic abuse, childhood sexual abuse, and sexual trauma.
My own experience in therapy changed my life. It helped me make sense of things I thought I had to carry alone. That journey is what led me to become a counsellor, so I can offer others the same kind of support and space that made such a difference to me.

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.
