About me
I am a Chartered Psychologist and counsellor with over 20 years’ experience in psychology, counselling, education, and professional practice. I work with adults who may appear to be coping on the outside, but privately feel anxious, tired, overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure what has changed. Many of the people I support are used to being responsible, managing pressure, and carrying on, even when life has started to feel more difficult than it looks.
My approach is calm, thoughtful, and practical. I offer a confidential space where you can speak openly, make sense of what is happening, and begin to understand the patterns that may be affecting your life, relationships, work, and wellbeing.
Alongside my counselling work, I have held senior academic and professional roles in psychology and health education. This background informs my work, but therapy is not an academic exercise. It is a careful conversation focused on your experience, your pace, and what may need to change.
I offer counselling and EMDR for adults experiencing anxiety, stress, burnout, trauma, difficult memories, relationship difficulties, life transitions, and men’s mental health concerns.
You are welcome to arrange a free 15 minute initial call to discuss what you are looking for and whether working together feels right.
I am a qualified counsellor, an Associate Fellow of the British Psychological Society, AFBPsS, and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, MBACP.

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.

Additional information
I am very reluctant to offer single sessions hourly rates as behavioural change is non sustainable in a regular commitment is not made by a client.
