About me
“In the midst of winter, I found there was, within me, an invincible summer.”
- Albert Camus
In over a decade of working in mental health, I’ve found that what makes therapy effective is the experience of being recognised. This often begins as a simple but important feeling—that you are being understood without being judged or reduced to a label. When there is space for all parts of you to be present, including those that may feel difficult or unclear, therapy can become a place where something begins to shift.
I trained in an integrative model, which means I draw from a range of approaches depending on what’s needed. I don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all way of working. Each person brings their own history, and sometimes people come to therapy when that no longer feels like it fits, or when they find themselves repeating patterns they don’t fully understand. Together, we can begin to make sense of these patterns and work towards a clearer, more grounded sense of yourself and how you want to live.
While I work with a wide range of issues, I have particular experience supporting people through periods of transition—times where something is changing, uncertain, or asking to be redefined. This can include young adulthood, questions around identity and direction, or more broadly moments of emotional, relational, or existential or spiritual questions. These periods can be challenging, but they can also open up the possibility for something new, and I aim to support you in navigating them in a way that feels steady, thoughtful, and meaningful.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a qualified therapist (Diploma in Humanistic and Integrative Counselling, BCPC) and a registered member of the BACP. My training is integrative, drawing on person-centred, psychodynamic, and embodied approaches. I work relationally, paying close attention to how experience unfolds in the room.
Alongside formal training, my practice is shaped by ongoing personal therapy, supervision, reading, and reflection. I combine structured learning with slower, integrative exploration, supporting a grounded and reflective approach to therapy.
I also hold an MA in Creative Writing, and I value how creative practices can enrich self-understanding and expression in therapy.
Experience
I’ve worked in both short- and long-term counselling for over a decade, supporting clients with a wide range of experiences.
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.
