About me
When we feel lost, unable to see a way forward, sometimes the wisest thing we can do is stop.
In the room, I find that beneath everything, most people want the same thing: a relationship where they don't have to be someone else to be accepted, where the mask can come off without the crippling shame of judgement. There's a vulnerable space of connection that lives in the silence between the questions. It's something I can't fully explain, but it allows for a kind of magic to happen between and around us. That's where healing happens, not in understanding or diagnosing what went wrong, but in a connection that says: you are of value, and there is meaning in your pain.
Resistance matters as much as acceptance. It tells us something essential about how you've experienced the world, and what you've needed to do to survive it. Our wounds form protective structures around us, and those parts deserve compassion, not judgement. Through acknowledging pain, and through compassionate curiosity about the parts of ourselves shaped to protect us from it, fertile ground for change can emerge. Sometimes, by standing still, we move forward.
As we work together, we may begin to heal the part of ourselves most often damaged by trauma: our intuition, our felt sense of self, the inner knowing that tells us whether a place, or a relationship, is safe. Paradoxically, change doesn't come from force, or from being encouraged to become different. It comes from a deep acceptance of where we are now.
I also offer couples therapy, helping partners understand the patterns in their relationship, improve communication, and navigate challenges together.
If you'd like to meet and see whether working together feels right, I offer a free 20-minute introductory call.

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.
