About me
I am an Integrative Psychotherapist, working with children, young people & adults. I offer online Psychotherapy & EMDR sessions, with spaces in Outdoor Nature Therapy opening in April 2025. If you’re feeling anxious, sad, suffering with low self-esteem & confidence, or you’re finding school or work difficult & you feel stressed, then we can work creatively, using nature and our therapeutic relationship as a safe space to explore new ways of thinking and relating to your world. EMDR Therapy can help with re-processing traumatic events, thoughts and memories.
I offer a calm, warm & confidential space for my clients. I believe being connected to nature & being outdoors can provide many benefits; improving your mood, reducing stress & blood pressure, increasing your relaxation and regulation. Being connected to our natural environment & surrounded by birdsong, trees, plants & wildlife, can help us to heal.
Being in nature can restore your psychological wellbeing & overall physical health. It can improve focus, reduce anxiety, increase emotional resilience & creativity, help with intrusive thoughts, emotional regulation & increase playfulness. Please reach out if you want to embrace therapy that is in a less formal setting and engages all your senses.
I have ITC Level 3 Award in Outdoor First Aid & Paediatric First Aid, Feb 2025.

Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) is a leading professional body for the education, training and regulation of psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors. Its register is accredited by the government's Professional Standards Authority.
As part of its commitment to protect the public, it works to improve access to psychotherapy, to support and disseminate research, to improve standards and to respond effectively to complaints against its members.
UKCP standards cover the range of different psychotherapies. Registration is obtained by training or accrediting with one of its member organisations, or by holding a European Certificate in Psychotherapy. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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.
