About me
In our work together, we might explore how past experiences shape the present, look at patterns in relationships, or begin to explore different parts of your self-identity. Whatever brings you here, whether it's anxiety, low self-esteem, feeling stuck, or a sense that something just isn’t right, I offer a calm, supportive space to explore what’s going on for you. My approach is down to earth and collaborative. You don’t need to have everything figured out to begin therapy, just a willingness to start. We’ll go at your pace and work together to help you feel more connected, confident and understood.
How I can help you
Starting therapy can feel daunting, especially when you don’t know where to begin, but that’s exactly what I’m here for. My experience includes working with people navigating life transitions, anxiety, depression, burnout, relationship challenges, self-doubt and bereavement to name a few. I also have experience in supporting clients who are neurodiverse, or considering embarking on their assessment journey. However whatever brings you to therapy, you deserve to be supported fully and wholly.

What to Expect in Our Work Together
I believe therapy should be as individual as you are. Our sessions can adapt each week to suit your needs. Sometimes you might feel the need for a space to vent and explore challenges from your week, or you might arrive to some sessions with something specific from your history that you feel you need to process. If you're not quite sure where to start, that's absolutely fine too, we can take things at the pace that you need.
What next?
It's important that you feel secure and comfortable with whoever you chose to start counselling with. I offer a free 15 minute telephone call for you to consider whether you might like to work with me. There is absolutely no pressure to book after this call, my hope is that you find the right counsellor for you, whether that is me or someone else.
Flexible and Accessible
Life is busy, and I understand how hard trying to fit another appointment into your busy schedule can be. Because of this, I offer flexible appointments to suit shift workers. Sessions are available in a quiet, private space in Walmer, Kent, or online via Google Meet or Microsoft Teams.

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.

I understand that life can get busy, and because of this, I try to make my practice as flexible as possible by offering a variety of appointments including evening and early morning time slots.
I offer a free 20 minute online or telephone introductory meeting. This will act as an opportunity for you to consider whether I am the right counsellor for you, and what you might need from counselling.
