About me
About Me
Hi, I’m a qualified counsellor based in Heswall, Wirral. I work with people navigating anxiety, depression, relationship issues, bereavement, low self-esteem, anger, trauma, feeling stuck, and more. I offer both in-person and remote sessions via Teams, or phone, as well as walk-and-talk therapy.
I see therapy as a collaborative process — a space to explore your experiences, gain clarity, and develop tools to manage life’s challenges. This might mean uncovering new perspectives or building confidence and coping strategies that feel right for you. Clients often describe me as warm, honest, and empowering.
How Counselling Can Help
Counselling isn’t just for people in crisis. It’s also for those feeling lost, disconnected, or simply overwhelmed by life, stress, or relationships. Therapy can be a space to catch things before they become unmanageable — a place to breathe, reflect, and reconnect.
I believe real change begins in a secure, non-judgmental relationship. Together we can look at what’s going on for you, at your pace, without pressure. I won’t give you advice or tell you what to do — I’ll help you discover your own answers, in a way that’s grounded, respectful, and supportive of who you really are.

I currently work with clients struggling with anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, self-harm, suicidal thoughts, bullying, and the emotional fallout of narcissistic abuse. Whatever you’re carrying, you don’t have to do it alone.
A Bit About Me
I feel genuinely privileged to do this work. Therapy isn’t just a job for me — it’s what I’m here to do. I’m deeply moved by the magical moments of transformation that happen in the therapy room: the lightbulb moments, the new insights, the gentle shifts in self-belief.
I’m committed to ongoing growth — constantly learning new therapeutic approaches, deepening my self-awareness, and refining the support I offer.
I’m a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and work to their ethical standards.

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.
