About me
I'm here to offer you a safe space to pause, be yourself, and find your way forward.
Do you sometimes feel like life takes more out of you than you have to give?
Maybe you feel stuck, exhausted, or weighed down by challenges that are hard to carry alone. Perhaps you find yourself second-guessing everything, or feeling more anxious in your relationships than you’d like?
I work with people navigating questions of identity, belonging, and burnout. Counselling offers a safe, confidential space where you don’t have to perform or hold it all together. It’s a place to pause, breathe, and explore what’s really going on, so you can feel more grounded, more at ease, and more yourself.
In our sessions, we’ll focus on what matters most to you. Together we’ll explore your strengths, uncover what’s holding you back, and find ways to create the changes you want.
You don’t have to do this alone, support is here when you’re ready.
Training, qualifications & experience
I work part-time as a counsellor at Resources for Autism.
I have a BA (Hons) in Counselling, and am a registered member with the BACP.
Through groups I facilitate with Resources for Autism, Seen & Heard, and MenSpeak, I am fortunate to listen to many personal stories. As someone who shares the experience of a late-life autism diagnosis, hearing other's journey has given me deeper insight on how different and unique each person's path can be. I have also learned about the lasting impact of boarding school, and the importance of presence, connection and belonging.
I have a particular interest in helping people being more at ease with themselves in their everyday lives and relationships, rather than feeling they have to perform and "keep doing".
I am very focused on continuing my development and regularly attend workshops and seminars on topics brought to me by my clients.
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
Taking the first step of asking for help from a counsellor can be daunting, but please be assured that I will make the process of finding the right counsellor for yourself as easy as possible for you, by answering any questions you may have in a short phone conversation, or in an email.
The next step would be to set up a 50 minutes exploratory session, charged at the current rate, which will provide an opportunity to meet face to face or online, and discuss what is going on for you and how counselling might help you, with no obligation.
I am close to public transport (halfway between Bounds Green and Arnos Grove tube stations), with on-street parking.
