About me
I am an Integrative Psychotherapist, offering individual sessions with adults. I am an accredited member of the UK Council for Psychotherapy.
My clinical background in the NHS includes extensive experience in specialist counselling, supporting families affected by trauma and loss. I also work with a range of charities in outpatient and community settings, supporting survivors of sexual assault and abuse, as well as people living with chronic or terminal illness and their families. These experiences inform my approach that places warmth, compassion, openness, and honesty at the centre of our work together.
Supporting people who feel excluded, lost, alone, or disconnected from their own lives is an especially meaningful part of my work. I believe we all have moments when we need to know that someone is alongside us.

How I Work
At the heart of our work is a warm, respectful and non-judgemental relationship where you can feel heard, understood and supported. Together, we can explore patterns affecting your wellbeing, understand how past experiences influence the present, and find ways to help you cope, grow and make meaningful changes. I also invite you to listen to your body, nurturing your awareness of the connection between mind and body and your own innate wisdom.
