About me
I am an experienced, accredited counsellor/psychotherapist seeing clients in Peckham and on zoom. I can help you understand and accept yourself whilst also exploring ways to implement healthy changes.
I offer a safe, confidential space where you can express your most challenging thoughts and feelings and be heard with empathy and respect. Together we will increase insight into the way you feel and act. We will explore how your life experiences have shaped your beliefs about yourself and the world. This process will enable you to gain more control over your thoughts and actions.
I offer long and short-term therapy, supporting clients with the range of issues that effect mental health and wellbeing including depression, anxiety and self-esteem.
I also specialise in Sex and Relationships therapy. I support clients with relationship issues, anxieties around sex, compulsive sexual behaviour and pornography use, and issues relating to sexuality and adjustment to health diagnoses.
If you think you might be interested in working together please email me. I will then offer you either a free introductory call, or a 50 minute assessment session. After the assessment session if you decide you want to go ahead we will book in a ongoing weekly slot.

Member organisations
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.
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
BACP is one of the UK’s largest professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy. Therapists registered with the Association fall into a number of different membership categories such as Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP and Registered Member MBACP (Accred), each standing for different levels of training and experience. MBACP (Accred) and MBACP (Snr Accred) members have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by the Association.
Registered members can be found on the BACP Register, which was the first register to achieve Accredited Voluntary Register status issued by the Professional Standards Authority. Individual Members will have completed an appropriate counselling and/or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but will not appear on the BACP Register until they've progressed to Registered Member MBACP status.
All members are bound by a Code of Ethics & Practice and a Complaints Procedure. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.

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).
