About me
Are you exhausted from holding everything together?
You might be struggling with anxiety, overthinking, people-pleasing, relationship difficulties, burnout, or the impact of past experiences that still seem to shape your life today.
Perhaps you've become so used to coping, masking, or putting other people's needs first that you're not quite sure who you are underneath it all.
Therapy offers a space to slow down, make sense of what's happening, and start feeling more like yourself again.
As an Accredited Therapist and Clinical Supervisor, I offer a warm, grounded, and down‑to‑earth environment where you can show up exactly as you are. My approach is trauma‑informed, sex‑positive, and rooted in compassion. I believe therapy works best when you feel safe enough to be honest, curious, and fully yourself - even if you’re still figuring out who that is.
I have extensive experience supporting clients from LGBTQIA+, kink, and non‑monogamous communities. Many people come to me because they’re tired of masking, minimising, or explaining their identity or relationships. In my practice, every part of you is welcomed and celebrated. You don’t need to educate me, justify yourself, or shrink to fit in.
Childhood trauma, identity exploration, relationship challenges, and long‑standing emotional patterns are all areas we can work through together. Therapy with me is collaborative and steady - we move at your pace, focusing on understanding your experiences, healing old hurts, and building a life that feels more aligned, connected, and authentic.
I am a qualified, Accredited member of BACP and NCPS. I am happy to answer any questions about my experience and my training
I offer face-to-face, video, and telephone counselling to suit your individual needs.

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.
