About me
I work with adults who may be feeling anxious, low, overwhelmed, or stuck in emotional or relationship patterns that don’t fully make sense. Many people I work with have spent a long time putting others first and are now seeking space to focus on themselves. Therapy can offer a place to slow things down, reflect, and begin to understand what’s going on beneath the surface.
I have experience working with anxiety, low mood, stress, post-natal depression and bereavement, as well as supporting people through life transitions such as becoming a parent or experiencing loss. I also work with clients who wish to explore questions around identity, self-worth, or possible diagnoses, including ADHD, autism, or borderline personality traits, particularly where these impact emotional wellbeing and relationships.
My approach is psychodynamic, meaning we explore how early experiences and past relationships may continue to shape how you feel and relate in the present. I aim to offer a safe, compassionate and non-judgemental space where you can bring whatever feels important to you, at your own pace.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a qualified psychodynamic therapist with a Postgraduate Certificate in Psychodynamic Counselling and a Postgraduate Diploma in Psychodynamic Practice from the University of Oxford. I am currently undertaking a Masters in Psychodynamic Practice at the University of Oxford. I am a registered member of the BACP and am working towards my accreditation with the UKCP.
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.
