About me
Life can be challenging at different times, and you may reach a point where you feel stuck or simply don’t want to deal with everything on your own. Having someone separate from other areas of your life to talk to can give you the space to make sense of what you are experiencing. I work relationally and collaboratively, taking the time to understand you and what has brought you to therapy. We work at your pace, exploring your experiences, relationships and patterns, and making sense of how these may be affecting you now.
Emotional difficulties such as anxiety, depression and low self-esteem.
Life challenges around stress, grief, change and feeling stuck.
Women’s experiences, exploring societal pressures, relationships, identity and life transitions.
Couples and relationship counselling, focusing on communication, trust, conflict and emotional connection.
I have learnt there is not just one way to work with people looking to better their personal growth, relationships and well-being. I will always work with you to tailor the sessions, being adaptable and flexible to what you need in the moment.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a fully qualified counsellor and psychologist which means I have the ability to draw on various theoretical approaches that will be best suited to you and your needs as they change. As an integrative therapist, I believe in being adaptable and tailoring sessions using psychodynamic, humanistic, attachment, relational and CBT modalities. I have experience working at the NHS, private clinics and charity where I have learnt that there is not just one way to work with people looking to better their personal growth, relationships and well-being.
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.
The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society This Not For Profit association of counsellors and psychotherapists aim to support the counselling profession, members and training organisations. In 2013 the NCS register was accredited by the Professional Standards Authority under the Accredited Voluntary Register Scheme. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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).
