Mbacp, Integrative Trauma and Neurodivergent therapist.
Hitchin SG5 & Biggleswade SG18

About me

I am a qualified integrative trauma and neurodivergent informed therapist. If you're feeling low,anxious constantly overwhelmed or simply trying to cope; you're not alone. Maybe you're navigating the heavy fog of depression, or feeling the weight of loneliness, even when you're surrounded by others. Perhaps you live with autism or adhd and you're tired of masking, just to get through another day. Maybe stress has built up overtime and now you're body, mind and emotions feel out of sync with the world around you.

Maybe you struggle for the words to explain what is going on inside you, you know something isn't right. You might be holding onto trauma with your nervous system stuck in survival mode, unable to make a decision.  You don't have to carry all of this on your own.

This is a space where all parts are welcome, the overwhelmed, confused, shut down, the internal anger, the busy mind and the quietly hurting parts. There is no pressure to be a certain way, you will be met with compassion. The struggling parts that long to be connected, the tired body that pushes through anxiety, the authentic self that craves to be recognised for it's neurodivergent traits.

You don't need to have the right words, therapy is a space where the word "should," does not exist. If you are willing to take the first step towards change, I will be happy to walk alongside you.

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.
