UKCP Accredited Psychotherapist

About me

I’m a fully accredited Integrative Psychotherapist, offering both in-person and remote sessions with flexible time slots to suit your schedule.

Whether you’re feeling stuck, disconnected, or that life isn’t aligning with what you hoped for - therapy can help.

I have extensive experience working with younger adults (18-35) and the unique pressures they face. I am experienced in working to help people navigate anxiety, low self-esteem, and the pressures of modern life including social media, friendships and dating.

My approach blends understanding and introspection with practical tools for real change. I believe therapy should feel collaborative, where you lead the pace and focus, and I provide support, insight, and techniques to help you move forward.

As an Integrative Therapist, I draw from Humanistic Psychotherapy, Narrative Therapy, CBT, and Solution-Focused approaches to create a safe, inclusive space where all experiences are welcome. I'm especially comfortable working with:

  • Anxiety, social anxiety & low self-esteem-
  • Depression & feeling stuck
  • Relationship worries, sex, dating & dating apps
  • OCD, overthinking & intrusive thoughts
  • Social media overwhelm
  • Family difficulties & divorce
  • Work-related stress & burnout
  • Letting go of the past

If you’d like to explore how therapy could help, I offer a free, no-obligation 15-minute phone consultation - a chance to ask questions and see if we’re the right fit.

Additional information

This can be particularly helpful for students or self employed people working in a variety of industries.
