About me
Are you dealing with spikes in your anxiety, panic, health, social or generalised anxiety? Learn to identify and manage your thoughts better and learn to self-regulate.
Intrusive thoughts can have a huge impact on someone's life; learn how to challenge them, not avoid them; learn to go towards your fears and foster a new sense of safety in your life.
Are trapped in mental or physical rituals and despite those giving some temporary relief, your thoughts keep coming back with a renewed sense of anxiety? You might have OCD. Learn how to manage it for life with the only tool that works for OCD, Exposure and Relapse Prevention (ERP).
Do you experience heightened anxiety in relationships? Or would you like to be close, but can't? Learn what about attachment styles and how they guide your feelings, actions and behaviour and how to stop an old script from interfering in your current or future relationship.
Do you suffer from low-self esteem, but don't seem to be able to feel any better, even if you achieve your goals? Do compliments from others often come across as insincere? Do you know them to be true, but don't believe them, at the same time? We will explore your core beliefs and learn how to develop a solid, internal and stable self-esteem.
Would like to explore your sexuality or do you experience psychosexual issues and do not know how to resolve them alone? You'll be welcomed in a non-judgemental, sex-positive and kink-allied space.
Would you like to learn how to better manage your ADHD and develop efficient strategies? Learn how having ADHD impacts your self esteem and how you can develop ways to live in harmony with it.
Maybe you are autistic and you like to explore your experience and difficulties. The right therapy can help you in this discovery. I practise autism-informed therapy.
I am a committed integrative cognitive behavioural therapist focused on helping clients find recovery and create meaningful, lasting changes in their lives. By fostering a collaborative relationship, I work with my clients to design strategies that promote strong mental health for the long haul, while also identifying methods to reduce the chances of relapse or the return of previous challenges.
I am an LGBTQIA+ affirmative therapist.

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.
