About me
I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I am psychodynamically trained where the therapeutic relationship, getting to the root of what is going on and deepening self-understanding is at the heart of my work.
I focus on understanding the individual within the context of their experiences, helping clients develop a clearer sense of themselves and the world around them. My work explores the deeper, sometimes unconscious thoughts, feelings, and patterns that may be contributing to distress. Together, we will look at the individual's past and present to gain insight and create meaningful change for the future.
I have many years of experience working with people experiencing current or past trauma, abuse, recent bereavement or deep-rooted loss, relationship, fertility, health challenges and clients who need someone to talk to who won't get upset or make them feel judged.
I offer a warm, creative and open space to explore all aspects, including those that may feel challenging or difficult. Therapy can feel daunting, but it is also an opportunity for growth and self-discovery. My aim is to support people in understanding their emotions, patterns and needs—helping them heal, shift, and move forward in a way that feels right for them.

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.
