About me
Feeling anxious, overwhelmed; like your life is out of control or you have lost your purpose. Or maybe your relationship is in crisis, you can no longer communicate and don't know where to turn?
I am a qualified individual and relationship therapist with lots of experience helping people improve their lives and relationships.
I work face-to-face or online from my home in the beautiful, peaceful countryside near Rye.
I will listen, unravel, reflect and ultimately help you to find a way through your difficulties. Whether you are an individual or a couple, we will go at your pace in a kind safe and non-judgemental space designed to make you feel totally at ease.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a BACP and NCPS registered therapist trained in an integrative and person-centred approach, which means I can draw on a range of therapeutic models in order to find the right support for you.
I have worked on a domestic violence helpline; was a Samaritans volunteer; worked for a low-cost counselling charity in London (Wilfrid's House) supporting clients with a wide range of issues including historic child abuse, bereavement, addiction and eating disorders. I have also worked for a charity (We Stand) which provides therapeutic support to parents whose children have experienced sexual abuse.
In my private practice I work with clients facing many different issues but I have a special interest in helping people with anxiety, which can be so debilitating and overwhelming, and with couples struggling with their relationship and the impact of children and family life.
My approach is warm and collaborative and my aim is to help you feel supported, understood and empowered to move forward.
Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society This Not For Profit association of counsellors and psychotherapists aim to support the counselling profession, members and training organisations. In 2013 the NCS register was accredited by the Professional Standards Authority under the Accredited Voluntary Register Scheme. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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.
