About me

It can really help to talk when we are going through difficult times in our life.  Whatever you are facing and however hopeless it may feel. I can help you make better sense of what is going on for you and together we can work towards positive change. As a psychodynamic psychotherapist, I have worked with people from different backgrounds and on a range of difficulties including anxiety, depression, self-esteem issues, trauma, personality disorder, ADHD, self-harm, identity problems, relationship difficulties, eating disorders, sexual and emotional abuse, family breakdown and bereavement.

With a background in the finance industry which has included helping develop people in high pressure organisations, I understand the workplace pressure that can arise resulting in anxiety, stress, loss of confidence and self-esteem issues. I also have experience and interest in body dysmorphic disorder (BDD), personality and eating disorders. Additionally, I have worked in a crisis service supporting a range of issues including, suicide, self-harm, abuse, bullying, isolation and anxiety.

My sessions are available in person, online and by telephone. I enjoy building strong, trusting relationships with my clients, to empower them to move forwards with their lives.

Training, qualifications & experience

My training includes a Master's in Psychodynamic Counselling and Psychotherapy, a Certificate in Practitioner Skills for Eating Disorders, a Diploma in Therapeutic Skills & Studies and a BSc (Hons) in Psychology. I am a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, meaning I work within the BACP’s ethical framework and abide by its professional code of conduct. This includes treating any information shared in therapy with respect and maintaining the strictest confidence.

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.

Wheelchair user access
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.
