About me
Navigating modern life can be challenging. As an experienced therapist, I specialise in helping individuals with issues such as anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and more. Through collaborative, evidence-based therapy, we will explore the underlying causes of your struggles and work together to build a healthier, more resilient approach to life.
I believe that our experiences, both genetic and environmental, shape our unconscious “life script.” By uncovering and understanding these patterns, we gain the ability to make conscious choices that support our growth and well-being.
I work with clients on a range of issues, including anxiety and panic, anger management, bereavement, depression, relationship difficulties, self-esteem, stress, neurodivergence, personal growth, and teenage challenges. Let’s work together to create positive change and empower you to move forward.

For the last 3 years I have worked as a counsellor within the NHS, speaking with clients with a wide range of issues, such as anxiety & depression, relationship problems, low confidence and self esteem, disordered eating, bereavement, abuse, stress and many more issues that can affect everybody throughout any stage of their lives.
I have experience working with young people in both an academic and pastoral role in a further education setting, as well as working in a formal counselling service at a local college.

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.
