About me
Life can be messy, can’t it? Whether it’s navigating relationships, battling anxiety, trauma, or just trying to figure out what you’re doing, I’m here to help you untangle the chaos
I know that reaching out for help isn’t easy. Whether you’re here because life threw you a curveball, or you just feel stuck in a rut you can’t seem to climb out of, you’re in the right place. Therapy is your time to vent, reflect, and grow (and occasionally laugh at life’s absurdities).
I work with people from all walks of life—it might be you’re juggling work stress, dealing with heartbreak, struggling with anxiety or depression, or asking yourself big life questions like, “What am I even doing?” or “how did I get here?” we’ll figure it out together. No problem is too big, too small, or too weird for this space.
No fluff, no judgment and as few “how does that make you feel?” as possible—just a safe space where you can vent, cry, laugh, and maybe even swear a little.
In counselling, I hope to support you to explore your thoughts, feelings and patterns of behaviour so that you develop more self-awareness and become closer to your true self, resulting in a shift from disconnect and anxiety to connection and an increased sense of self-worth. I am a qualified therapeutic counsellor and also a counselling tutor.
First sessions: We’ll start with some small talk to ease in—nothing too intense. I’ll explain a bit about how therapy works: confidentiality, how sessions usually flow, and what kind of support I can offer. It’s also your chance to ask any burning questions like, “What if I cry the whole time?” (Spoiler: totally fine!)
No pressure, but this is your time to share whatever feels important. Whether it’s a big life event, a vague sense of “blah,” or just “I don’t even know why I’m here,” we’ll start piecing together what’s on your mind. You don’t need a polished narrative—this isn’t an interview.
I’ll ask some gentle questions to get a sense of who you are, what’s been going on, and what you hope to get out of therapy.
By the end of the session, we’ll have a rough idea of where we’re headed. It’s not set in stone (life rarely is), but it gives us a direction. You’ll leave with a better sense of what therapy with me looks like and maybe even a small, manageable takeaway to start with
And if you’re worried about saying too much, too little, or just feeling weird? That’s part of the process, and I’ve got you.
Training, qualifications & experience

Accredited member of the BACP
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.

Further information
The first session gives you the opportunity to find out more about the counselling process and how it might be to work with me.
Feeling comfortable with your therapist is an important part of the process, and so we can discuss what approach you would like to take and the level of challenge you might be looking for/comfortable with.
