About me
I work online and face to face in Northampton NN1. My area of experience is around trauma informed practice and working with sexual violence. Trauma can affect many areas of our lives, including our relationships, confidence, sense of safety, and how we see ourselves. Whether your experiences are recent or rooted in the past, therapy can provide the opportunity to process them at a pace that feels right for you.
Alongside trauma work, I have experience supporting clients with anxiety, depression, stress, PTSD, OCD, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, attachment issues, domestic abuse and intimacy difficulties.
I believe that every person's experience is unique, and I will work alongside you to create a therapeutic experience that feels supportive, meaningful, and tailored to your individual needs. I understand that reaching out for support can feel like a big step. My hope is that you will feel comfortable, heard, and accepted from our very first conversation.
As a counsellor working within the BACP ethical framework, I treat every client the same way; with the utmost sensitivity, care, genuineness, compassion, and confidentiality. You can trust that you will be heard without judgment.
Training, qualifications & experience
I currently work for two charities with a focus on trauma support; processing past traumatic experiences, exploring any current difficulties and managing emotions and wellbeing.
I have a good understanding of secondary trauma and burn out which can be experienced by front line professionals, this experience can have a huge impact on our personal lives.

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.
