About me
Feeling overwhelmed or anxious? Wondering when you’ll finally feel more like yourself again? Life can get heavy, work stress, unexpected changes, or trying to juggle everything at once can leave us feeling stuck and exhausted. You don’t have to figure it all out on your own. Together, we can explore what’s going on and find a way forward that feels right for you.
Here are some of the ways we might work together, and how counselling can help you:
- Feel more in control of your emotions
- Overcome stress and anxiety
- Let go of unhelpful thought patterns that keep you stuck
- Building emotional resilience and confidence
- Understanding yourself with more compassion
We’ll focus on what matters most to you, whether that includes some of these areas or other challenges you’re facing right now.
I offer online counselling for adults, by video or phone, weekly or fortnightly, depending on what works best for you.
If you're thinking about starting therapy, the first step is simple: send me an email and tell me a little about what’s going on for you. If you’d like, we can set up a free 10-minute phone chat to answer any questions and see if we’re a good fit. After that, there’s no pressure — you’re welcome to take your time or go ahead and book a session when you’re ready.
Email me today – let’s talk about how counselling can support you.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), which means I work to high standards of ethical and professional practice. I regularly undertake CPD and further training to ensure my practice continues to stay relevant to my clients' needs.
Living With Cancer: Space to Process and Find Your New Normal: A cancer diagnosis and treatment can be life-changing, whether you're:
- Recently diagnosed
- Currently undergoing treatment
- Adjusting to life after cancer
Many of the people I've worked with say that after treatment, they're expected to feel happy, but instead, they're left trying to make sense of everything that's happened. It can feel isolating, especially when others may assume things are "back to normal". You might be coming to terms with the changes to your body, identity, or relationships, or feeling disconnected from the life you had before.
I offer a supportive space to help you process your experience, wherever you are in your cancer journey, and begin to adjust to life after cancer, whatever your new normal looks like.
Qualifications:
- BACP Certificate of Proficiency
- Higher Professional Diploma in Counselling with Distinction
- Working with Women and Girls in the Sexual Violence Sector
- BSc (Hons) Forensic Psychology
- Online and Telephone Counselling Certificate Course (Counselling Tutor)
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.
