About me
I am a qualified integrative counsellor based in South London, offering both online and in-person sessions. Together we can explore and make sense of the challenges you’re facing that may feel too tangled or overwhelming to navigate alone. You may find yourself feeling stuck, lost, or uncertain about the way forward, and that’s where therapy can help.
Counselling, for many, can feel daunting. Opening up to someone new about your deepest thoughts, fears, or emotions, especially ones you’ve never shared aloud, can feel uncomfortable. I provide a safe, confidential, and non-judgemental space where you can begin to work through whatever is on your mind, at a pace that feels right for you.
As an integrative counsellor, I bring together psychodynamic and person-centred approaches. This approach reflects the understanding that no single model of counselling can fully capture the complexity of each person’s life and experiences.
At the core of my practice is a person-centred foundation, where I create a space where you feel seen, heard, understood and accepted through empathy, warmth, and non-judgment.
Alongside this, psychodynamic exploration can help us examine early childhood experiences and underlying patterns that may still influence how you feel and relate to others and the world today.
I believe that much of the healing in therapy comes from the relationship we build together. In our sessions, we’ll take things at a pace that feels safe for you, exploring your thoughts, emotions, behaviours, and experiences. The therapeutic relationship can be a powerful ground for healing, insight, and meaningful change. My goal is to support you in navigating these life challenges, finding clarity and new perspective and reconnecting with a stronger sense of who you are.

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).
