About me
I am an experienced Counselling Psychotherapist with a background in both NHS and private practice, and I am a registered member of the BACP (Accredited) and ACC. I offer in-person therapy in London (SW14) and online sessions across the UK.
Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, depressed, or unsure how to move forward? Do your thoughts feel difficult to switch off, or do you notice patterns in relationships or behaviour that no longer serve you? I want to listen to you and hear your story.
What happens during a session?
I offer a thoughtful, confidential, and non-judgemental space where you can explore your experiences at your own pace. Sessions are 50 minutes long, and during our time together, we can develop a deeper understanding of what underlies your thoughts, feelings, and behaviours and begin to make sense of the difficulties you are facing. I offer short-term (6-12 sessions) or long-term (open-ended) contracts.
How I work
I work integratively, drawing on a range of therapeutic approaches. This allows us to tailor our work to you, whether that involves exploring past experiences, understanding current patterns, or creating meaningful, lasting change.
Our time together will give you the space and opportunity to share your experiences, thoughts, feelings and behaviours in a warm, non-judgemental, confidential and caring environment. We can also explore possible reasons for your feelings, thoughts, and behaviours that have brought you to therapy.
My Interest
I have a particular interest in working with individuals navigating life transitions, abuse, trauma, loss, identity, and cultural or spiritual questions, especially when different aspects of a person’s experience feel in tension.
My previous career in the private sector, along with my experience of living abroad, has given me a deep appreciation of the complexities of change, transition, and identity.
I am also trained as a Spiritual Director and welcome exploration of spirituality or religion where this is important to you.
Get in touch
If you feel this approach may be right for you, you are welcome to get in touch to arrange an initial consultation.

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.
