About me
Are you feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure where to turn? You're not alone - and you don’t have to go through it alone. I offer online counselling for anyone facing life’s challenges, whether you’re dealing with day-to-day worries or struggling with deeper emotional pain. My approach is open, compassionate, and tailored to your unique journey.
I work with a wide range of issues, including:
- Anxiety, depression, and emotional distress
- Relationship and family challenges
- Exploring early life experiences and trauma
- Suicidal thoughts or crisis points
- Substance and alcohol use - your own or someone else’s
- Neurodiversity (SEN) support
- Parental rejection, abuse, and emotional neglect
Whether you're looking for practical tools to shift your thinking or ready to explore deep-rooted emotions and patterns, I provide a safe, supportive space where everything you bring is welcome.
If you’re facing a fundamental crisis of identity or responsibility in life, we can work together to explore that too - with honesty, depth, and care.
You deserve to be heard, understood, and supported.
Let’s start from where you are - and take it one step at a time.

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.
