About me
Life can sometimes feel overwhelming, and it’s okay to feel like you're struggling to keep up. In my therapy practice, I offer a warm and supportive space where you can slow down, feel heard, and take time for yourself away from the demands of daily life.
My goal is to help you understand and process any challenges you might be facing in a way that feels kind and compassionate. I believe that therapy should always be a space where you feel truly listened to and respected, and it’s in this space of openness and care that healing and change can begin.
Together, we’ll explore your relationships and life experiences, helping you gain deeper insight into yourself. With this understanding, I believe we all have the ability to make positive changes and lead more fulfilling and meaningful lives.
My own journey to becoming a therapist began after a career in retail and brand management left me feeling burnt out and disconnected. Therapy gave me the space to reassess my values and what truly mattered to me, and that experience inspired me to help others and train as a counsellor.
In addition to my private practice, I also facilitate support groups for a domestic violence charity, working with people from all kinds of backgrounds who are facing different struggles. I have a special interest in supporting those recovering from addiction and am passionate about men’s mental health.
I work from an integrative approach, meaning I draw on a variety of therapeutic models to offer the most supportive and personalised care for you.
I work from a light, welcoming space in Spitalfields, London E1, just a short 10-minute walk from Liverpool Street Station, 7 minutes from Aldgate East, and 10 minutes from Shoreditch High Street.
If you're curious about therapy, have any questions, or want to see if we might be a good fit, please don’t hesitate to get in touch. I’d be happy to chat with you and answer any questions you may have.

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.
