About me
Helping You Break the Cycle – In Mind and Body
We don’t come to therapy when life is easy. We come when something’s stuck. When the same patterns keep showing up. When motivation slips, confidence fades, or stress quietly takes over.
You’re here because some part of you know things could be better. That’s powerful. That first spark of awareness? That’s where real change begins.
I offer more than just talk therapy. I work from a mind–body integrated perspective, combining professional counselling with physical wellbeing strategies to help you reclaim your identity, regulate your emotions, and rebuild your confidence. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, motivation, addiction, grief, relationship issues, or burnout, you don’t have to go through it alone.
Why Work With Me?
I’m a qualified therapist and personal trainer, working from a my own unique boutique studio space that allows clients to connect back into their bodies as well as their minds. This is a transformational space – designed to help you get unstuck, feel stronger, and create lasting change. Clients often tell me they feel calmer, more in control, and more like themselves again.
I work especially well with those who feel "on the edge" – high-functioning but overwhelmed. You might have tried other things before. You might think you “should” be able to handle it. But you're tired of white-knuckling through life, and you're ready to invest in something that actually works.
🧠 Areas I Support:
Behavioural change & habit formation
Low self-esteem & self-worth
Anxiety, depression, emotional burnout
Addiction & recovery support
Relationship issues (past or current)
Grief, transitions, life purpose
Motivation, identity, stuckness
💬 How It Works:
Sessions are £65 and last 50 minutes. Many clients book blocks of 4–8 sessions at a time to deepen their work and maintain momentum. Sessions can include talk therapy only, or mind–body integration if preferred.
Located at PLW Fitness Studio in West Park, Darlington, you’ll experience a calm, confidential, and supportive space to move forward at your pace.
If you’re ready to make a change – or even just ready to explore what change could look like – book a consultation with me. There’s no pressure. No judgement. Just a space for you to feel heard, supported, and clear on your next step.

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.
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 UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) is a leading professional body for the education, training and regulation of psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors. Its register is accredited by the government's Professional Standards Authority.
As part of its commitment to protect the public, it works to improve access to psychotherapy, to support and disseminate research, to improve standards and to respond effectively to complaints against its members.
UKCP standards cover the range of different psychotherapies. Registration is obtained by training or accrediting with one of its member organisations, or by holding a European Certificate in Psychotherapy. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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).
