About me
I offer Online Counselling across the UK.
Perhaps you're feeling lost, stuck or overwhelmed, and you're not quite sure how to move forward. You may be struggling to make sense of your thoughts and feelings, or finding it difficult to cope with something that life has brought your way.
My counselling space is somewhere you can slow down, be heard and begin to make sense of what's happening. Together, we'll explore what you're experiencing and find ways that feel right for you, whether that's coping with something difficult, understanding yourself more deeply, or finding your way towards where you want to be.
For me, counselling is a way of looking after yourself and your mind. It's giving yourself the space and time to process life's difficult challenges and perhaps offering yourself the metaphorical hug that we can find hard to give ourselves.
Many people come to counselling feeling unsure where to start. Together we can gently explore what you are experiencing and find a place where it feels best to begin.
My Counselling Space / How I Work
For me, the relationship between therapist and client is at the heart of counselling. Feeling heard, understood and accepted can create the space to explore things honestly, without judgement.
My approach is person-centred and integrative. I see you as the expert in your own life, and we'll work together to explore what feels important to you. I draw on different therapeutic approaches and adapt how we work depending on what feels most helpful for you as an individual.
In our work together, we might explore your thoughts, feelings, relationships, values, behaviours and life experiences. My aim is to help you begin lifting the fog, understanding yourself more clearly and finding your own path forward.
Working Online
I provide online counselling sessions via the secure video platform Google Meet. This means I can reach you wherever you are in the UK as long as you have a stable internet connection and a tablet or computer/laptop. You can attend your sessions in the comfort of the environment you choose, perhaps with your pet nearby, in comfortable clothes and with a cup of tea if you wish.
Free Initial Consultation
I offer a free 20-minute online consultation, with no obligation, so you can ask questions, get a feel for how I work, and decide whether working together feels right for you.
If you'd like to get in touch, you're welcome to use the email button on this profile, or alternatively text or call me. I aim to respond within 1 working day.

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.
