About me
I offer remote counselling support
Welcome, I’m glad you’re here
With 30 years’ experience as a Counsellor and now a Senior Accredited Psychotherapist, I offer support to adults, young people, couples, and families. Whether you’re facing anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, or recovering from past trauma or addiction, you don’t have to go through it alone. I have extensive experience and have heard many success stories of positive outcomes, challenging negative mindsets, and breaking addictive cycles towards personal growth and healing traumatic symptoms.
A space just for you
Counselling with me is tailored to your needs. Some people find a short series of sessions (around 6) helpful, while others prefer longer-term therapy. Together, we’ll find the pace and focus that feels right for you.
What you can expect
A safe, confidential, and non-judgmental space
Time to talk through painful or confusing feelings
Support to help you understand yourself more fully
Steps towards healing, confidence, and positive change
If you’re ready to take the next step, do make contact.

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.
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.
Areas of counselling I deal with
Other areas of counselling I deal with
Experienced trauma-informed online psychotherapy
With over 30 years' experience as a Senior Accredited Psychotherapist, I specialise in helping adults, couples, and families recover from the effects of trauma. Whether your experiences stem from childhood, relationships, abuse, loss, or addiction, I provide a compassionate, confidential space where you can feel safe, heard, and understood.
Trauma can affect every aspect of life, often leading to anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, emotional distress, or addictive behaviours. Together, we'll work at a pace that feels right for you, helping you process difficult experiences, build resilience, and develop healthier ways of coping.
My aim is to support you in moving beyond survival towards healing, greater self-understanding, and meaningful, lasting change.
