About me
Finding the right person to talk to can be difficult, particularly when what you're struggling with feels personal or hard to put into words.
I'm a BACP Accredited therapist offering online therapy for adults. I work with people experiencing trauma, anxiety, relationship difficulties, questions around identity and sexuality, neurodivergence, and other issues that can leave you feeling stuck, overwhelmed or disconnected.
My approach is gentle, collaborative and non-judgemental. You don't need to arrive with everything worked out. We can start with what's happening for you now and make sense of it together.
Looking for help with sex or relationships?
Alongside my regular therapy practice, I'm currently offering a limited number of reduced-fee, short-term sessions focused on sexual and relationship difficulties.
This work forms part of my specialist training in Psychosexual and Relationship Therapy. I'm registered as a student member of the College of Sexual and Relationship Therapists and undertake this work with appropriate clinical supervision as I complete my training.
This is focused, short-term work around a specific issue rather than open-ended counselling. Sessions are usually around 8 to 12 appointments, depending on what you're looking for and what feels appropriate.
You might be dealing with:
- difficulties getting or keeping an erection
- ejaculating sooner than you'd like
- difficulty reaching orgasm
- low sexual desire or a difference in desire between partners
- pain during sex or difficulties with penetration
- anxiety, pressure or self-consciousness around sex
- feeling disconnected from a partner
- difficulty talking openly about sex or intimacy
Sexual difficulties can have emotional, relational and physical factors. Where appropriate, medical advice may form part of the wider picture alongside sex therapy.
We'll look at what's happening for you, what might be contributing to it, and what could help. Where appropriate, there may be practical exercises to try privately between sessions.
For ongoing counselling
The short-term sexual and relationship work is separate from my regular counselling practice.
My ongoing work can include trauma and PTSD, anxiety, relationship difficulties, identity and belonging, LGBTQ+, neurodivergence and men's emotional wellbeing.
I also have experience supporting people who are exploring sexuality, gender and relationship diversity, and people trying to understand how earlier experiences may still be affecting relationships, confidence or emotional wellbeing now.
My ongoing therapy work is usually open-ended rather than limited to a fixed number of sessions.
My approach
I want therapy to be a place where you can speak openly without feeling judged or having to justify yourself.
I won't make assumptions about what your relationship should look like, what your sex life should be like, or how you should understand your identity. What matters is making sense of your experience and finding ways forward that feel right for you.

Member organisations
school 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.
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.
