About me
You may appear to be coping well on the outside, while privately feeling very different. Perhaps you overthink conversations, worry about what other people think, put pressure on yourself to get things right or rarely feel quite good enough.
You might be successful or capable in many areas of your life and still struggle to recognise this in yourself. When something goes wrong, you may immediately blame yourself. In relationships, you might avoid conflict, need reassurance, put other people’s needs before your own or find yourself caught in familiar patterns that you don’t quite understand.
Often people come to therapy because they’re tired of feeling this way. They may know what they do, but not understand why they do it — or why knowing something logically doesn’t seem to change how they feel.
This is where psychodynamic therapy can be particularly helpful.
Rather than focusing only on managing symptoms, we’ll be curious about you as a whole person. We can explore how your earlier experiences and relationships have shaped the way you see yourself, what you expect from other people and how you respond when you feel anxious, criticised, rejected or uncertain.
I work with adults experiencing anxiety, low self-esteem, self-criticism, overthinking and relationship difficulties. I also work with adults with ADHD, those awaiting assessment, and people beginning to wonder whether neurodivergence might help explain some of their experiences.
You don’t need to arrive at therapy knowing exactly what you want to talk about. Part of our work can be understanding what has brought you here.
I offer in-person counselling in Glasgow’s West End and online across the UK. A free 15-minute introductory phone call gives you the opportunity to tell me a little about what’s happening, ask any questions and see whether working together feels right. There’s no obligation to book afterwards.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP) and hold a Postgraduate Diploma in Counselling, with training in psychodynamic therapy.
Alongside my private practice, I have experience working with adults experiencing anxiety, low self-esteem, overthinking, relationship difficulties, grief and loss, ADHD, and difficulties connected to earlier life experiences.
I also have an understanding of how living with a long-term health condition can affect emotional wellbeing, and how our physical and emotional experiences can influence one another.
I work within the BACP Ethical Framework, attend regular clinical supervision and continue to develop my practice through ongoing professional development.
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.

How I Work
You may be someone who appears to be coping well. You get on with work, relationships and everyday life, but underneath you might be constantly overthinking, doubting yourself or worrying about what other people think.
Perhaps you’re particularly hard on yourself when something goes wrong. You might find it difficult to switch off, struggle to feel good enough, or notice yourself repeating the same patterns in relationships even when you know they aren’t helping you.
Sometimes people come to therapy knowing exactly what they want help with. Others simply know that something doesn’t feel right anymore. You don’t need to have worked it all out before we meet.
My approach is psychodynamic, which means we won’t only look at what is happening in your life now. We’ll also be curious about how earlier experiences and relationships may have shaped the way you see yourself, relate to others and respond when things become difficult.
Understanding these patterns can help you recognise when the past is influencing the present and give you more choice in how you respond, rather than finding yourself caught in the same cycle again.
I offer in-person counselling from my practice in Glasgow’s West End and online sessions across the UK.
Getting Started
I offer a free 15-minute introductory phone call. You can tell me a little about what has brought you to therapy, ask me anything you’d like to know about how I work, and get a sense of whether you would feel comfortable talking with me.
There’s no obligation to arrange a session afterwards.
