About me
I am a qualified, BACP‑registered Counsellor and Psychotherapist with an MA in Integrative Counselling. I believe that you are the expert in your own life, and my role is to work alongside you — adapting therapy to your needs, your pace and your lived experience.
I offer individual therapy for adults (18+) online via Teams, by telephone, and in person at the Saltaire Victoria Therapy Centre, a calm and welcoming space in West Yorkshire.
Alongside my private practice, I volunteer at Bradford Rape Crisis, supporting survivors of sexual violence and trauma. This work has deepened my ability to hold complex emotions with steadiness, sensitivity and respect.
I receive monthly clinical supervision, ensuring my work remains ethical, reflective and grounded in best practice. I am also completing ongoing CPD in Couple Counselling, strengthening my understanding of relationship dynamics, attachment patterns and communication issues.
How I Work
My approach is warm, authentic and relational. I offer a safe, trustworthy space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings without judgement. Clients often come to me when life feels overwhelming, confusing or stuck. Together, we make sense of what’s happening beneath the surface — your emotions, patterns, fears and unmet needs.
You can expect a therapist who is:
Authentic – I show up as a real person
Honest – I offer gentle, clear reflections
Empathic – I listen deeply and without judgement
Accepting – All parts of you are welcome
I draw on a range of therapeutic approaches to tailor the work specifically to you. I don’t believe in a “one size fits all” model — your story deserves an approach that fits.
What I Can Help With
I work with men and women experiencing both short‑term and long‑term issues, including:
Anxiety and overthinking
Depression and low mood
Trauma and emotional overwhelm
Low self‑esteem and self‑worth
Work‑related stress and burnout
Domestic abuse and coercive control
Relationship difficulties and repeating patterns
Cultural and family pressures
My trauma‑informed experience means I offer a steady, safe space where you can explore difficult experiences at a pace that feels manageable.
Why Clients Choose Me
Clients often tell me they chose me because they wanted someone who is:
Warm, grounded and easy to talk to
Professional yet human
Skilled in trauma and emotional regulation
Able to hold sensitive experiences with care
Knowledgeable about relationships and attachment
Someone who offers clarity, steadiness and genuine presence
Therapy with me is not about “fixing” you — it’s about understanding you, supporting you, and helping you reconnect with your strength and sense of self.
Free 15‑Minute Consultation
Taking the first step can feel daunting. I offer a free 15‑minute consultation (online or telephone) so you can get a feel for how I work and decide whether I’m the right fit for you.

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.
