About me
I'm a fully qualified, registered counsellor and psychotherapist, specialising in a wide range of mental health concerns for clients aged 11 and above, including adults of all ages. Whether your issues stem from past experiences, current challenges, or future uncertainties, I am here to provide the support you need.
As an Integrative counsellor and supervisor, I am trained to help you to navigate a range of issues including anxiety, depression, low self esteem, bereavement and loss, anger, stress, suicidal thoughts, self-harm, relationship problems, narcissistic abuse, co-dependency and more.
Currently I only have online sessions available.
I'm trained to be able to provide various modalities:
- Parts works - this helps you to learn and accept all different parts of yourself as a whole being.
- Psychodynamic - looks at your past and how it is affecting your life now.
- Existential - helps you to understand your place in the world by exploring life's difficulties.
- Creative work - can help you to communicate your inner world and feelings through non-verbal expression. It can help open up the subconscious to allow for suppressed feelings to come through.
- Polyvagal therapy - can be a powerful tool for you if you're navigating stress, trauma, and emotional well-being complications. The therapy's strength lies in its holistic approach, acknowledging the deep connection between mind and body.
I offer flexible therapy options to accommodate your preferences, including face-to-face sessions, online therapy, telephone consultations, and home visits (with a small fee for travel). Each session is tailored to your individual requirements, ensuring that we explore your concerns in a safe and confidential environment. My goal is to foster a trusting therapeutic relationship that empowers you on your journey to healing.
To help you feel comfortable before committing to a session, I provide a FREE 10-15 minute telephone consultation. This brief chat allows us to discuss your needs and determine if you feel ready to book your first session.
If you would like to reach out for support, please feel free to email, call, or text me. If I am in a session when you call, kindly leave a message, and I will return your call as soon as I am available.
Please don't hesitate to get in touch for more information. Contact me today to take the first step towards improving your mental health and well-being!

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.
