About me

I believe in creating a strong therapeutic relationship, with the client at the centre. I am trained in humanistic, existential, psychodynamic, behavioural and social psychology. Hopefully we can create a safe space where you have choice and control over your healing journey. I am here to learn how to be the best therapist I can be for you, at your pace.
 I am ADHDer and believe that being neurodivergent makes me even better at offering neuro-affirming therapy – our differences can bring us some challenges but they are also some of our most amazing traits. I absolutely love supporting my fellow neurodivergents embrancing and harnessing their unique potential!

I am a BACP accredited psychotherapist (MBACP) credentialed in the UK with over a decade of professional practice. I have experience helping clients with ADHD and Autism, stress, anxiety, trauma, abuse, motivation, self esteem and confidence issues, depression. I believe in treating everyone with respect, sensitivity, and compassion. I will tailor our dialog and treatment plan to meet your unique and specific needs.

Taking the first step to seeking a more fulfilling life takes courage, I am here to support you in that process.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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.
