About me
There are many reasons why it might be the right time for you to come to therapy. Whether it’s a specific concern or a want to understand yourself better, therapy can be useful for exploring your thoughts, feelings and behaviours. Whatever your reasoning, making the decision to seek out a therapist shows great strength and bravery.
As a Humanistic & Integrative psychotherapist, my aim is to understand your inner world and tailor our work together to ensure it meets your needs. I work from a holistic model where all parts of you, such as your relationships, experiences, mind and body are considered as they shape who you are today.
I see each person as unique, believing that there is no such thing as a good or bad person. By drawing on relational theoretical approaches, skills and concepts, my hope is our work together helps you to improve your autonomy and self-belief.
I offer a safe, non-judgemental and confidential space for us to work in. By creating a safe environment, we can begin to process and unpack your thoughts, feelings and experiences at a pace that suits you. When words alone may not suffice, creative elements may be introduced to help enhance your understanding of your experiences. I will provide warmth and empathy throughout our work together to support you in creating a life that you want to live.
Within my work, I integrate theoretical concepts such as human developmental theories and neuroscience into my practice to support further understanding of relational patterns and promote self-regulation.
I work with a range of emotional and relational difficulties, with a particular interest in supporting individuals navigating fertility challenges, pregnancy, affairs and trauma.

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.

Additional information
I currently offer face-to-face sessions in Nottingham, as well as a limited number of online sessions in the evenings.
Please feel free to get in touch to discuss my availability.
I offer a free 15-minute phone call for us to briefly discuss your needs and to answer any questions that you may have regarding therapy and what you’re looking for. After this initial phone call, an assessment process will begin to help decipher whether I am the right therapist for you and if I have the right skill-set to support you.
