About me

I work with adults who feel stuck in cycles of low self-worth, self-doubt, or disempowerment - those who have learned to silence their needs, apologise for who they are, or feel like they’re “not enough.” Whether this stems from early experiences, societal pressures, or internalised shame, I offer a warm, reflective space where clients can begin to rediscover their value and voice.

I also have a particular passion for supporting LGBTQIA+ individuals, drawing on lived experience to offer an affirming and compassionate environment to explore identity, belonging, and healing.

My work is rooted in person-centred values, which means I work alongside you rather than leading or giving advice. My approach is gentle, collaborative, and grounded in the belief that meaningful change happens when you feel safe, seen, and accepted just as you are. I offer a calm, respectful space, offering insight and empathy while supporting your own capacity for healing. 

Reaching out for counselling can feel overwhelming, and finding someone who feels right for you is an important part of the process. I offer a free 20-minute introductory call so we can get to know each other a little and see if working together feels like a good fit.

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.
