About me
You might be functioning on the outside, but inside you feel tense, flat, or emotionally exhausted. Perhaps you keep going, meeting expectations, and telling yourself you should be coping better, while something underneath feels unsettled or heavy.
People come to therapy with me when anxiety, low mood, guilt, grief, or relationship difficulties have started to feel harder to carry alone. Sometimes there is a clear problem, sometimes just a sense that old patterns keep repeating, or that you have lost touch with yourself.
My approach is warm and collaborative, with space to reflect and make sense of what you are experiencing. I work integratively, drawing on person-centred and psychodynamic therapy, with elements of CBT, to explore emotional patterns and everyday ways of coping shaped by past relationships and present pressures.
You do not need to have everything worked out before starting therapy. We can take time to understand what feels difficult and what you might want to change. If you are considering therapy and would like a steady, supportive space to begin, you are welcome to get in touch.
Training, qualifications & experience
I hold an MSc in Counselling and Psychotherapy and an MSc in Psychology, with experience supporting adults through complex emotional difficulties, relationship strain, and major life changes.
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 believe that therapy should be as accessible as possible. A small number of reduced-fee spaces are available for people who are experiencing financial difficulties or for whom the full fee would make accessing therapy difficult.
If cost is a barrier, you're very welcome to get in touch. If I have a reduced-fee space available, we can discuss what may be possible.
