About me
After spending over 25 years in the corporate travel industry, I discovered that my true passion lay in supporting people through life’s challenges. As I took on leadership and coaching roles, I became deeply aware of the emotional and psychological needs of those around me. This realisation led me to retrain as a counsellor, transitioning from a corporate environment to a profession dedicated to helping individuals navigate their personal journeys.
I have experience working with clients facing a wide range of difficulties, including depression, anxiety, relationship challenges, workplace stress, parenting concerns, and bereavement. My goal is to offer a safe, welcoming space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings with the assurance that you will be heard, understood, and supported.
As a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), I adhere to a strict ethical framework, ensuring professionalism, confidentiality, and integrity in every session. My approach is collaborative and tailored to each individual, integrating psychodynamic counselling and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to suit your needs.
I have worked in various settings, including a bereavement charity in central London and a GP surgery, offering support to those struggling with grief, anxiety, and emotional distress. I bring curiosity, hope, and deep respect to my work, believing that each client has the strength to navigate change—sometimes, they just need the right support to start that journey.
Taking the first step can feel daunting, but you don’t have to do it alone. If you would like to discuss how counselling could help you, please feel free to reach out via email or phone. I will respond as soon as possible and look forward to supporting you

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.
