About me
Hi and welcome,
I understand that the world has changed a lot recently and in this, you may have noticed many different emotions rising and have possibly been unsure how to manage these. You may have felt alone at times too, or even had specific feelings increase and want to understand why, hence seeking out a therapist.
I work with you to help look at these emotions and understand yourself more, by looking back at your past, as well as working with the here and now. Let's work together, so that you can find the right words to describe and understand your feelings, emotions and behaviours.
I am also a Theta Healing practitioner, which means that we can work together on a spiritual platform too, as this can help clear things that you have kept within that no longer serve a purpose to you or may not even belong to you. If Theta sounds like an approach you would be intrigued to work with, we will introduce this into sessions where your whole self will learn to reconnect spiritually.
Our sessions will be tailored to suit YOU as we are all individual in our processes and bespoke services work best.
It can be hard to find a counsellor, so i offer a free 10-15 minute consultation where we can get to know each other more and then book an assessment session.
I hope to provide a space where you can feel safe and comfortable.

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
I am understanding of different cultures, beliefs, and values. I feel race and sexuality in therapy is something that is very important. I have studied and developed my tools in working with clients from the Global Majority and LGBTQ+ communities.
I have over 5 years experience of working with drugs and alcohol in a unique yet successful approach.
We work together so you can learn to heal and gain tools, that help you continue your development of self, by allowing yourself to see the layers that you have built up as protection as these helped you in the past, however, these may not be so fitting now, so we can work on transforming them to best suit the you now.
Let us work together to find what helps you develop.
I work with adults and have an enhanced DBS certificate.
