About me
Do you find yourself caught in repeating patterns that leave you feeling stuck, anxious, overwhelmed, or dissatisfied despite your best efforts? Perhaps you struggle with self-criticism, procrastination, relationship difficulties, or a persistent sense of falling short. You may already understand your difficulties intellectually, yet still find yourself returning to the same painful reactions and outcomes. If so, therapy can help you uncover what hidden processes keep you stuck and reconnect you with a greater sense of direction, choice, and fulfilment.
My aim is to help you develop greater awareness of the beliefs, emotions, and habitual ways of relating that shape your experience. Together, we will explore not only what is happening in your life, but how it happens. Through dialogue, creative exploration, and attention to the connection between mind and body, we will identify the processes that limit you and discover more effective ways of meeting life’s challenges.
I believe that a trusting and collaborative relationship is central to successful therapy. My role is to provide a space where you feel genuinely understood, thoughtfully challenged, and supported to explore yourself honestly. By combining compassion with insight, I help clients reduce self-judgment, develop greater self-trust, and create lasting change in the way they live, work, and relate to others.
If you are interested, I offer a free initial zoom consultation.

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.

Further information
I have particular interest and experience in treating clients from the creative industries, having worked as a counsellor specialising in actors and musicians at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama.
Previously, I directed documentaries for TV, where I gained valuable insight into the complexities and problems of performing in the public eye.
Before that, I was a solicitor specialising in media law, so I have a long-standing relationship with and understanding of fame and the entertainment industry.
