About me
Qualified Psychotherapeutic Counsellor (RQF Level 5)
"Everyone deserves a safe space to be heard. I believe that high-quality, professional mental health support should be accessible to all, regardless of background or circumstance."
About My Practice
I am a dedicated psychotherapeutic counsellor trained in a pluralistic approach. This means I don't believe in a "one-size-fits-all" model. Instead, I collaborate with you to find the methods that best suit your unique needs. By integrating elements of Psychodynamic theory, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and a Person-Centred core, I tailor our sessions to respect your individual pace and goals.
At the heart of my work are the three core conditions: empathy, congruence, and unconditional positive regard. When you sit with me, you have my undivided attention in a non-judgmental environment where you can explore your thoughts and feelings safely.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a fully qualified practitioner, having completed rigorous RQF-accredited training:
- Level 5 Professional Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling Practice (Chrysalis/The King’s Trust)
- Level 3 Certificate in Counselling Skills (CPCAB)
- Level 2 Certificate in Counselling Studies (CPCAB)
Experience & Areas of Interest
My clinical background includes extensive work at The Swan Project, a specialist charity supporting individuals through the complexities of active addiction, recovery, trauma, and abuse. While this remains a cornerstone of my experience, I am passionate about supporting clients through the full spectrum of the human experience.
I am particularly drawn to working within inclusive, community-focused practices. I welcome clients from all walks of life and am eager to support you through a wide range of issues, including:
- Life transitions and identity
- Anxiety and depression
- Relational challenges
- Self-esteem and personal growth
