About me
As a BACP-registered integrative psychotherapeutic counsellor, I offer a warm, confidential and non-judgmental space where you can feel safe to explore your thoughts, emotions and challenges at your own pace.
I hold a diploma in Integrative Counselling, a degree in Nutritional Therapy, and a Post-Qualifying Diploma in Eating Disorders. I have a particular interest in supporting clients with disordered eating and eating disorders, including emotional eating, binge eating and chronic dieting. I also work with families, carers and loved ones affected by eating disorders.
By gently exploring both the emotional and practical aspects of your relationship with food, I aim to support you in developing a more balanced, compassionate and sustainable sense of wellbeing.
I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, relationship difficulties and low self-esteem, including Counselling for Depression within NHS Talking Therapies. My integrative approach draws on person-centred, psychodynamic and CBT models, and is tailored to your individual needs. I offer both short-term and longer-term therapy, in person and online.

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.
