About me
Welcome, I am a BUPA assured Integrative Counsellor and Psychotherapist based in Milford, Surrey close to the A3 so easy access from Godalming, Elstead, Haslemere, Guildford, Farnham and surrounding areas.
I am qualified to work with children (10+) adolescents, and adults, offering a safe and supported space for all. No problem is too big or too small, and everyone is worthy of counselling. Taking the step to start counselling may feel daunting, but investing in your mental wellbeing is truly life changing.
My Approach
Integrative counselling means working with and adapting to different theories to suit your individual needs. Whether it be talking, exploring creatively, or both, the possibilities are endless. Together we will better understand your thoughts, feelings and behaviours.
What this means for YOU;
You are not fitted into a rigid method.
Your experiences, culture and goals shape our work.
We can adapt as your needs change.
I consider our relationship as a key factor in your counselling experience and believe that strong authentic relationships enhance personal growth.
I'm here whenever you're ready to begin.

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.
