About me
Feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure how to make sense of your emotions? I’m a qualified person-centred counsellor offering a warm, supportive space where you can be heard and understood.
Alongside my private practice, I work in a secondary PRU supporting young people with social, emotional and mental health (SEMH) needs, giving me hands-on experience with emotional regulation, anxiety, low mood, and complex life situations.
I offer both online sessions across the UK and in-person sessions in Islington, North London.
How I Work
I work from a person-centred approach, our sessions are guided by you and what feels most important to explore.
I aim to create a space that is:
- Empathic - understanding your experience from your perspective
- Authentic - being genuine and human in our work together
- Non-judgmental - offering acceptance, whatever you bring
- Sessions are collaborative, paced around you, and there’s no pressure to share anything before you feel ready.
I support clients with:
- Anxiety, stress, and overthinking
- Low mood and depression
- Self-esteem and confidence
- Feeling stuck or directionless
- Emotional regulation and coping skills
- Life transitions and change
- Relationship difficulties
I have particular experience with:
- Young people and young adults
- Neurodiverse clients, including autism and learning disabilities
- SEMH needs

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.

Further information
Starting counselling can feel daunting, but you don’t need to have everything figured out before taking the first step.
I aim to provide a calm, supportive space where you can feel safe being yourself and explore your thoughts and feelings at your own pace. Whether you’re coming with something specific or just a sense that things don’t feel right, you’re welcome to bring whatever feels important.
I aim to respond to all enquiries within 24 hours.
