About me
Welcome - I’m glad you’re here.
I’m a person-centred therapist dedicated to offering a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where you can explore the challenges you’re facing - past and present. Whether you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply unsure of your next step, I’m here to support you in understanding the root causes of what you’re experiencing.
Together, we’ll explore your thoughts, emotions, and behaviours to uncover patterns that may be holding you back. Through this process of self-awareness and clarity, you can begin to make empowered changes and move forward with greater confidence.
Alongside person-centred therapy, I integrate CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) techniques to help you identify and shift unhelpful thought patterns and behaviours. With a practical, goal-focused approach, we’ll work on creating sustainable, healthy habits that align with the life you want to lead.
Areas I can support you with include:
- Anxiety and stress management
- Depression and mood regulation
- Self-esteem and self-acceptance
- Relationship challenges
- Life transitions and personal growth
I am neurodivergent friendly as I have ADHD. I am inclusive and will adapt session to your needs where possible.
If you're feeling unsure or nervous about starting therapy, I offer a free 10-minute phone consultation a space for you to ask questions, share concerns, and see if I might be the right fit for you.
A holistic approach to wellbeing
In addition to being a qualified counsellor and psychotherapist, I’m also a holistic wellness practitioner, certified in both personal training and nutrition. If your challenges relate to body image, low self-worth, or unhealthy eating patterns, we can take a truly integrative approach working on both the emotional and physical aspects of wellbeing in a supportive, collaborative way.

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.
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.
