About me
Integrative & Transpersonal Therapy Specialist
Finding the right therapist is a significant step, and I am honoured that you are here exploring your options. It’s natural to feel daunted and ask questions like, "Will they understand me?" or "Where do I even start?"
You are not alone in this process. My goal is to offer a safe, respectful, and confidential space where you can explore what you need to feel more grounded and connected in your life.
My Approach: Listening to the Space In-Between
With over 20 years of experience supporting both local and international clients, my approach is rooted in an integrative therapy style. This means I draw from various therapeutic techniques and philosophies to tailor our sessions precisely to your unique needs.
My principal emphasis is on the Transpersonal perspective. While "transpersonal" may sound like a fancy name, I simplify this by saying that I "listen to the space in-between." It is about connecting with your 'higher self' or the deeper, intuitive wisdom within you.
What this means for you: We will work collaboratively to help you understand the hidden messages that may lie in your past, respond dynamically to your current needs, and unlock your full potential.
Beyond the Talking Space: The Power of Sound and Presence
In addition to traditional counselling methods, my extensive background as a Gong Master Therapist and Master of Sound allows me to incorporate unique pathways to healing if they feel right for you. I have facilitated workshops and studied meditation disciplines around the world—in Thailand, Vietnam, Nepal, India, and France at Plum Village.
This diverse background allows me to bring a deep understanding of presence and self-reconnection into our therapeutic work, helping you move beyond words when necessary.
How I Can Help You
I specialize in several key areas and have extensive experience helping individuals navigate:
- Inner Child Work: Healing past wounds and building self-compassion.
- Addiction & Substance Abuse: Finding pathways to recovery and stability.
- Neurodiversity Counselling: Creating understanding and strategies tailored to how your mind works.
- Grief & Loss: Processing complex emotions and finding a path forward.
All of our work is guided by a foundation of mutual respect, trust, and deep understanding.

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 National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society This Not For Profit association of counsellors and psychotherapists aim to support the counselling profession, members and training organisations. In 2013 the NCS register was accredited by the Professional Standards Authority under the Accredited Voluntary Register Scheme. 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.
