About me
I am a UKCP accredited Humanistic Psychotherapist and BACP Registered Psychotherapeutic Counsellor. I offer face-to-face counselling and psychotherapy in Norwich City centre, both short-term and long-term.
I currently only have availability for in-person sessions. I am able to offer sessions online via Zoom on occasion, when not possible to meet in person (i.e. due to illness).
Humanistic psychotherapy is an integrative approach that brings together established and well-researched types of therapy including Person Centred, Transactional Analysis, and Gestalt approaches. These modalities focus on understanding a person as a whole, in the context of their life and personal history.
In helping you explore your circumstances, relationships, thoughts and feelings, my aim is to support you in gaining perspective and in making meaning of your experience. As a Humanistic practitioner, my way of working is relational and collaborative with you, with respect for you as a person, your needs and safety.
An initial exploratory session is offered on a no obligation basis. My usual session fee is charged.
I am covid conscious and my therapy room has a small HEPA filter and adequate ventilation. I have strict illness policy and request that clients do not attend sessions in-person if they are unwell or may be contagious.
My practice is LGBTQIA+ welcoming and gender affirming. My pronouns are she/her.
I ascribe to the social model of disability. Please let me know your accessibility requirements. Unfortunately, there is currently no wheelchair access or client parking available at my location

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.
The UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) is a leading professional body for the education, training and regulation of psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors. Its register is accredited by the government's Professional Standards Authority.
As part of its commitment to protect the public, it works to improve access to psychotherapy, to support and disseminate research, to improve standards and to respond effectively to complaints against its members.
UKCP standards cover the range of different psychotherapies. Registration is obtained by training or accrediting with one of its member organisations, or by holding a European Certificate in Psychotherapy. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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).
