About me

​I will meet you with warmth and compassion.  I focus on creating a safe and non-judgemental space so that clients can share and explore at their own pace. 

I am an experienced counsellor and a registered member of the British Association of Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP). I am based in Peckham and work with individual adults, both in-person and online. I enjoy working with a wide range of clients and have particular experience with LGBTQ+ people and those who are dealing with loss, grief and bereavement.  Many of my clients are living with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, and the impact of trauma.  I also work with the impact of adoption on adult adoptees, adopters and birth family. 

My training followed an integrative model which enables me to be flexible in my approach. If you are feeling stuck, anxious or dissatisfied in your life, it might be helpful to explore some of your early experiences and think about how those are affecting you today. Alternatively, if you have a more particular challenge that you would like to tackle, we can be more focussed.

Training, qualifications & experience

I have an Advanced Diploma in Integrative Counselling and, before training to be a counsellor, I worked for many years in the arts.  In addition to my private practice, I have experience of working for a bereavement charity and within LGBTQ+ mental health services.

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.

Accredited register membership

Key details

DBS check info

In England and Wales, the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS, formerly known as CRB) carry out criminal records checks for individuals working with vulnerable groups, such as children. To find out more, visit gov.uk , or contact this professional directly

Wheelchair user access info
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.
