About me
Counselling for Adults and Young People. (16+) Life can be demanding, and at times it may feel overwhelming. People come to counselling when they are struggling with grief, relationship difficulties, family pressures, work stress, burnout, or low confidence. Others come during times of change, such as separation, bereavement, menopause, or other major life events that bring old feelings to the surface.
How can therapy help? Life can feel confusing sometimes - like something’s off, but you’re not sure why. Maybe you’re facing big decisions, low motivation, relationship struggles, or just feeling stuck. Together, we’ll look at your experiences and how they might be shaping the way you think, feel, and respond to life today. This isn’t about judgment or quick fixes - it’s about understanding yourself more deeply so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.
Young People In my private practice, I work with young adults who may be struggling with the transition to university life, adapting to living away from home, anxiety, identity issues, lack of motivation, and the pressures of academic life. I also support graduates adjusting to life after university and the uncertainty that can come with this stage of adulthood. Being a young adult is not always about academic success and an active social life. Many young people experience feelings of isolation, overwhelm, or pressure to fit in while trying to discover who they are. Having a safe, supportive, and confidential space to talk can make a real difference.
I am available in Tunbridge Wells and online. I hope this helps you find what you are looking for.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am qualified with a Diploma in Psychodynamic Counselling from a BACP-accredited training course. I also hold a BA (Hons) and continue to further my knowledge with comprehensive CPD.
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.

Additional information
I offer a 50-minute assessment session for £45. This is an opportunity to talk about what brings you to counselling, what you hope to gain, and to see whether my approach feels right for you. I will also explain how I work and answer any questions you may have.
If we decide to continue, we’ll agree on a regular session time. Counselling can take place online or in person in Tunbridge Wells. We’ll also discuss whether a short-term or open-ended approach would best suit your goals. Sessions are £60. I do offer concessions for those on a low income and trainee counsellors. Please do get in touch in confidence.
