About me
I offer a safe, confidential, and non-judgemental space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences at your own pace. You may come to counselling following a life event, because you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or simply wanting to understand yourself more deeply. You don’t need to have a clear reason or know where to begin—this is a space where you can speak openly and feel heard, without pressure or expectation.
Rather than giving advice, I work alongside you to make sense of your experiences in a way that feels right for you. Counselling can help you reflect, recognise patterns, process emotions, and develop a more compassionate relationship with yourself. Whether you are working through something specific or seeking greater clarity and direction, the process is led by you.
I also offer couples counselling, providing a supportive and structured space to explore your relationship together. You may be experiencing conflict, disconnection, or communication difficulties, or noticing patterns that feel hard to shift. I support both partners in feeling heard and understood, without blame or judgement, while helping you to listen to one another in new ways.
I offer both weekly couples counselling sessions and Couples Intensive sessions, depending on the level of support and pace that feels right for you.
The focus is on understanding the relationship and the dynamics within it—exploring how individual experiences, needs, and communication styles may be influencing things. I work with couples who are neurotypical, neurodivergent, or a mix of both, supporting you in navigating differences in a way that feels balanced and respectful.
Together, we work towards greater understanding, improved communication, and finding a way forward—whether that means strengthening your connection or navigating change thoughtfully.
More information about working with me individually or as a couple, including weekly and intensive sessions, can be found on my website.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am an accredited counsellor and clinical supervisor. I hold a Level 5 Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling and work as an integrative counsellor, drawing on a range of therapeutic approaches. This allows me to adapt how I work to best support your individual needs. I also attend regular training to continue developing my knowledge and practice.
Before training as a counsellor, I worked within the Armed Forces and Emergency Services. During this time, alongside my own experience of counselling, I felt drawn to make a change and move into this area of work.
I began by volunteering with Childline and supporting young people at risk of entering care. This experience was deeply meaningful and helped shape my early understanding of relational and emotional needs. As my training progressed, I chose to focus on working with adults, including completing a placement in Sri Lanka, which broadened both my perspective and experience.
Alongside my counselling training, I worked with Mind, where I managed a Wellbeing Centre and Crisis Service. In this role, I supported individuals experiencing a range of challenges, including mental health difficulties and issues related to drug and alcohol use. During this time, I also held placements with organisations such as GamCare and a bereavement charity, further developing my experience across a variety of complex and sensitive areas.
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.
