About me
Are you feeling overwhelmed, anxious, or depressed? Are you fed up with finding yourself back in the same place time and time again? Is there a part of you that feels something is missing from your current life. I am here to listen, we can work through whatever challenges you are facing. Counselling can offer a supportive and therapeutic space to explore and understand these difficult feelings and can be the first step towards untangling our worries and seeing our problems in a new light. We can explore with curiosity what troubles you on a day-to-day basis. If you feel you would like to talk to someone, Together we will try to understand these difficulties. I have experience in working with, anxiety, panic attacks, stress, depression, relationship difficulites, Trauma related issues, low self worth.
Benefits of counselling
- Navigate current challenges you have in your life.
- Looking at our frustrations and stuckness that prevent us from moving forward and finding ways to move out of this.
- Shinning a light on our inner critic and learning to be kinder to ourselves.
- Understanding why we feel a certain way, uncovering our past and finding ways to integrate it in to the here and now.
- Having a better relationship with ourselves and others
- Making decisions that align with our values and goals.
- Feeling more alive and engaged in the present moment.
I work using a relationship integrative model which means how we relate to ourselves and how we relate to others. I believe what was broken in a relationship can be healed in a relationship. I draw upon different theorists, from person-centred, psychodynamic models. I believe in the power of bringing mindful awareness to the present moment on how we feel and think. I believe in the wisdom of the body to help us process difficult emotions. I will work with your individual needs. I welcome difference and diversity.
The first session will be to explore what you need support with and how we can work together. I will do a brief assessment/questionnaire to understand what your presenting issues are. I provide a limited number of spaces for those on low income. I offer a free 20-minute phone consultation to discuss how we can work together.

I have a particular interest which stems from my own personal experience on trauma work, and I have been doing some training and will continue this.
I had various career paths and my search for understanding of myself led me to train as a counsellor which I feel very passionate about. I would love to accompany you on this journey.

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.
