About me

I am a CBT therapist offering online sessions at £50 per session. I have particular experience supporting neurodiversity, including ADHD, autism and dyslexia, as well as working with OCD, anxiety, depression, panic, trauma and self-esteem difficulties.

My approach is flexible, practical and tailored to you. CBT is at the heart of my work, but I also draw on ACT, DBT and person-centred approaches where they are useful. I don’t believe therapy should be one-size-fits-all, and I adapt our sessions to what you need, rather than expecting you to fit neatly into a particular approach.

Therapy with me is supportive and understanding, but it is also active. I’m compassionate and grounding, but I will challenge you when needed and encourage you to take accountability for the changes you want to make for yourself. I believe therapy should help you get unstuck, build momentum and work towards real, meaningful goals, not just talk about the same problems week after week.

Whether you are struggling with OCD, anxiety, panic, low mood or depression, or simply feel that you need a space to talk things through, we can work together to understand what is keeping you stuck and decide what needs to happen next.

I have particular experience working with neurodivergent clients, including ADHD and autism, and I am dyslexic myself. This gives me both professional experience and personal understanding of how differently people can think, process information and experience the world. I aim to make therapy flexible and accessible, working with your strengths rather than expecting you to work against how your mind functions.

Starting therapy can feel daunting, especially if you have never done it before. You don’t need to arrive with everything figured out. We can work out where you are, where you want to be, and how to start getting there.

Training, qualifications & experience

I have been working with clients for five years, offering therapy that combines professional expertise with lived experience. I hold a Diploma in CBT counselling and have completed additional training in ACT and DBT, allowing me to tailor therapy to each client’s needs. I have a particular focus on supporting neurodiverse clients, including those with ADHD, autism, and dyslexia, drawing on my own experience as a dyslexic therapist to bring empathy, insight, and practical strategies to our work together.

Outside of therapy, I am a professional photographer, primarily working in weddings. My creative work allows me to meet people from all walks of life; this has deepened my understanding of human behaviour, emotions, and relationships, which informs my approach in therapy. I am also deeply committed to charity work and activism, particularly supporting refugees, including time spent working in camps in northern France and Belgium. These experiences have strengthened my ability to listen, adapt, and hold space for people navigating significant challenges in their lives.

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.
