About me
Therapy can be a powerful space to feel seen, heard, and supported - especially when life feels heavy or unclear. I offer a warm, accepting environment where you can explore what’s going on for you at your own pace. Whether you're feeling anxious, stuck, overwhelmed, or simply curious about yourself, we can work together to make sense of things.
The relationship we build together is central. I aim to create a space where you feel safe to be exactly as you are. I’ve supported people through a wide range of experiences, including loss, trauma, identity exploration, abuse, and mental health challenges.
I welcome people from all walks of life and am committed to anti-oppressive, inclusive practice.

Training, qualifications & experience
I'm a BACP-registered counsellor with a Masters in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy. I use a relational, trauma-informed approach that adapts to your needs. My work draws on person-centred, psychodynamic, and gestalt modalities, and I also bring in body awareness, creativity, or psychoeducation when it feels helpful.
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.
