About me

I offer remote counselling using a person-centred approach, creating a supportive and non-judgemental space where we can work together to explore what you need from therapy. My aim is to build a collaborative relationship, where we find a way of working that feels right for you and allows us to draw on a range of therapeutic tools and techniques that I’ve developed through my training and experience.

I’m particularly passionate about helping clients understand where patterns of thought and behaviour may have come from, and working together to find meaningful, practical ways to manage or shift them using tailored coping strategies.

I believe in being open and transparent throughout the process. You won’t be doing this alone — we’re a team, and I’m here to walk alongside you every step of the way. Every person is unique, and I believe therapy should reflect that. I take time to tailor each session to suit your individual needs, recognising and respecting the things that make you who you are.

Training, qualifications & experience

I am a qualified counsellor with a background in psychology (BSc) and a Master’s degree in counselling. My training draws from a range of therapeutic approaches, including Person-Centred Therapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Psychodynamic Therapy. This allows me to tailor sessions to suit your individual needs.

I have also completed specialist training in areas such as substance misuse, sexual violence, trauma, and NHS ACT (Acceptance and Commitment Therapy). In addition, I’m trained in mindfulness, which I can incorporate into our work together and offer resources for you to explore between sessions.

My professional experience includes working as a pastoral manager in a primary school, giving me valuable insight and understanding when working with children and young people.

My counselling practice is grounded in building genuine, trusting relationships, and my academic research focused on the importance of relational depth in the therapeutic process. I offer a safe, compassionate space for you to explore whatever is on your mind at your own pace.

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.
