About me

We can all feel overwhelmed at times. In today’s world, pressures from social media, ongoing uncertainty, and feelings of isolation can leave us struggling to cope or feeling disconnected from ourselves.

I offer a safe, calm and confidential space where you can explore whatever is going on for you. I believe deeply that you are the expert on your own life, and that you already hold the answers within you. My role is to walk alongside you, offering support and curiosity as we gently explore your experiences and help you find a way forward that feels right for you, enabling you to live a more authentic and fulfilling life.

Together, we can look at patterns of behaviour or ways of thinking that may no longer serve you, helping you gain greater awareness and widen your choices.

I work with a range of issues including anxiety, addiction, self-harm, abuse, trauma, relationship difficulties, and low self-esteem. You may also simply be experiencing stress or a sense that something isn’t quite right. No issue is too small or insignificant if it matters to you.

Therapy can be short-term or longer-term, depending on your needs, and we will work at a pace that feels comfortable for you.

I work in Finchampstead, in a quiet and peaceful environment with no distractions to help you to relax, focus and gain all you can in your sessions.

Within a short drive from Wokingham, Barkham, Crowthorne, Sandhurst, Yateley, Eversley, Fleet and Arborfield with free onsite parking.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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).

Counselling begins with discussing the areas of your life you wish to explore and to agree what you would like to achieve from our work together.

Your confidentiality is of paramount importance to me and what we talk about during our time together will be treated with sensitivity and privacy at all times.
