About me
As an MBACP-registered therapeutic counsellor, I specialise in Transactional Analysis with a relational approach. I offer a warm, supportive space where clients can openly explore their thoughts, feelings, and challenges. My style is collaborative, empathic, and dynamic, helping clients recognise patterns that may be limiting them and supporting meaningful change. Combining insight with compassion, I aim to foster growth, healing, and greater self-awareness so clients can navigate life with more confidence and clarity.

My approach
I work relationally, focusing on your individual needs, using Transactional Analysis informed by radical psychiatry and an anti-oppressive stance. I’m in regular clinical supervision and work within the BACP and UKCP ethical frameworks.

I offer therapy in English, French and German. I’m AuDHD and live with Ménière’s disease, which informs my work with neurodivergent clients and people with vestibular conditions.
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.
