About me
Life can feel overwhelming, but I aim to offer a compassionate, non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings safely. Together, we'll work towards understanding your experiences and finding paths towards healing and growth.
I specialise in supporting individuals dealing with:
- Anxiety, low self esteem and depression
- Childhood trauma
- Relationship difficulties, boundaries and family dynamics
- Grief and Loss
- Identity, belonging and cultural barriers
My approach is integrative, drawing from various therapeutic models to tailor our sessions to your unique needs. This can also mean incorporating creative and visual methods to help you access and express emotions that may be difficult to articulate. By exploring attachment patterns and past narratives, we can foster healing and build resilience.
I often work with people who feel caught between different worlds - culturally, socially or personally. Whether it's due to race, culture, sexuality or upbringing, I understand how isolating it can be to feel like you don't fully "fit". Therapy with me is a safe space where those complexities are welcomed, explored and cared for with full acceptance of who you are.
Training, qualifications & experience
I hold a BSc (Hons) in Humanistic & Integrative Psychotherapy and Counselling from Staffordshire University, completed through the Sherwood Psychotherapy Training Institute (SPTI). As a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP), I adhere to their ethical guidelines and professional standards.
Alongside my private practice, I have six years experience working with a registered mental health charity, where I support a wide range of clients - often navigating trauma, neurodivesity, cultural identity and social exclusion.
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.
