About me
I offer specialist therapeutic support to individuals experiencing the effects of trauma, chronic stress, and demanding personal or professional environments.
My practice integrates EMDR with a systemic approach, recognising that distress is often shaped not only by individual experiences but also by the wider contexts in which people live and work.
I have extensive experience supporting blue‑light professionals—including police, paramedics, firefighters, aswell as clients from a broad range of sectors who face high‑pressure or emotionally challenging situations.
Through a structured and evidence‑based process, I provide a confidential space where you can explore both the immediate impact of difficult events and the broader patterns, relationships, and organisational pressures that may influence your wellbeing.
Whether you are addressing a specific incident or the cumulative demands of your role or circumstances, my aim is to help you process what you have been carrying, strengthen resilience, and move towards a more balanced and sustainable way of living.

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
Why do I love working as a Psychotherapist?
I have a strong belief that everyone already carries strengths and skills that can support their healing. My role is to help you access and build on those existing resources in a calm, steady, and supportive space, so you can process what you’ve been carrying and move forward with greater confidence and balance.
What can you expect from sessions?
A grounded presence, a non‑judgemental space, a steady pace, clear guidance through EMDR, Human, authentic connection with curiosity and a non-judgemental perspective and an additional sprinkling of playfulness and humour
How do I work?
You can expect the space to be calm, empowering, validating, collaborative and reflective and to gently explore blindspots for personal development
What clients often come to me for?
Clients come to me for many reasons including trauma, overwhelm, work‑related stress, difficult life events, burnout, cumulative pressure, relational stress and distress when they are in a place to do the important and life changing work that will help them get unstuck.
