About me
Having received both vaccinations I am currently seeing clients in-person and online using Zoom/Skype. This offers an option to get the support you need the way you want.
For in-person sessions I continue to adhere to social distancing measures, have hand gels in the therapy room and, between clients, I use antibacterial wipes on all common surfaces.
I am a registered BPS and HCPC registered chartered counselling psychologist (CPsychol, DPsych) with experience across a diverse range of issues including substance use, anxiety, depression, trauma, abuse, personality disorders, self-harm in addition to many more concerns.
Deciding to engage with psychological therapies means finding the right therapist for you. I work in a practical and down to earth way that is geared towards helping you make the most out of therapy, at a pace that works best for you. Using a collaborative approach we will work together to explore and unravel the issues that are bringing concern to your life. I am here to listen, to be with, to empathise and to support you as best I can.
I have extensive experience in working with individuals who feel challenged by their emotional experiences. I conducted my doctoral research into men's use of substances with a focus on how they are used to manage social expectations of masculinity and men's emotional experiences. This does not mean it is only men who are challenged by social and gender expectations so please contact me if this resonates with you.
If you are hesitant with the notion of therapy, feel unheard or feel challenged by how you "should" be living your life; then my approach can help you. There are no expectations from me for how you should engage with therapy. I aim to provide a space that makes you feel comfortable and safe to express yourself. My doctoral level training and clinical exposure have given me the skills and experience to practice across a wide range of evidence-based theories and techniques such as existential, psychodynamic and CBT therapies
Please get in touch to discuss your therapy needs.

Member organisations
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.
British Psychological Society (BPS)
British Psychological Society
Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC)
The HCPC are an independent, UK-wide health regulator. They set standards of professional training, performance and conduct for 16 professions.
They keep a register of health professionals who meet their standards, and they take action if registered health professionals fall below those standards. They were created by a piece of legislation called the Health Professions Order 2001.
Registration means that a health professional meets national standards for their professional training, performance and conduct.
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
Accredited Register Scheme
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.
