About me

My therapeutic approach is rooted in empathy and acceptance, encouraging you to embrace your true self during our sessions. Together, we can navigate through challenges such as anxiety, low mood, self-esteem issues, identity exploration, and healing from past traumas.

I firmly believe that trust is the cornerstone of effective therapy. By fostering a trusting relationship, we can collaboratively work towards your unique goals and aspirations, empowering you to live a life that brings you satisfaction and hopefully joy.

Every individual's journey is different, which is why I tailor our sessions to fit your specific needs and preferences. Whether you're facing difficulties or transitioning through life's changes, I'm here to provide personalized support and guidance.

As a Black woman, I celebrate diversity in all its forms and warmly welcome clients from diverse backgrounds. If you're ready to take the first step towards positive change, I invite you to reach out and schedule a complimentary initial call.

Together, we can embark on a journey towards greater self-discovery and well-being.

Training, qualifications & experience

I hold a Postgraduate Diploma in Counselling & Psychotherapy from The University of East London.

The Awareness Centre- working with clients on a long term basis, allowed us to build strong foundations and unlock patterns in their lives, explore dynamics within their relationships and finding ways in which to move forwards.

Mind - Brent, Wandsworth & Westminster- working at Mind offered a more solutions-focused approach to therapy where we worked together to re-write the script.

Battersea Befriender Network- working with individuals who were isolated from society due to mental health conditions.

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.

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).
