About me
I work with couples and individuals. Every client is accepted for who they are as they are, I provide support for each one through the many challenges we often face as partners, in families, or as individuals in our everyday lives.
If you find yourself struggling in your relationship with your partner or spouse, in your family, or your relationship with yourself. If you're feeling anxious, disconnected, stuck, alone, confused or unsure of how to navigate what you're going through, I can help.
The areas of work that I specialise in working with are
- Infidelity, betrayals and broken trust
- Family issues
- Disconnection and feeling lonely in relationships
- Feeling stuck and repeating patterns in relationships
- Couples navigating traumatic experiences together
- Significant life changes - as couples or individuals
- Couples and families that work together
- Grief and loss
- Divorce and separation support
- Religious trauma
- Neurodiversity in couples
- LGBTQ+ couples
I offer compassionate and practical support in a safe space within which to explore your issues and work towards your wellbeing goals.
Whether you're seeking one-to-one or couples counselling, I invite you to embark on your transformative journey with me.
The therapeutic relationship between client and therapist is crucial to meaningful therapy.
Choosing to seek counselling isn't a failing; it is a positive act of care, benefiting both you and those around you.
What happens next?
Having taken the first step to accessing support, sometimes it can be confusing about what happens next and how it works.
I offer introductory calls for potential clients to learn a bit about me and how I work. I will talk you through what will happen during a first session, whether you're looking for online or in person sessions, and if it feels like the right fit for you, we can talk about the next steps and booking in for a session, but there is never any pressure as choosing the right therapist to support you is important.

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.
