About me

As a therapeutic counsellor, I provide a safe, confidential, and supportive space for individuals to explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours. My role is to help you navigate challenges, gain insight into your experiences, and empower you to make positive changes in your life. Whether you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, trauma, self-esteem, or simply feeling stuck, counselling offers a space to be heard without judgment.

 I use therapeutic techniques crafted to your needs. This might involve exploring past experiences, addressing current challenges, or working on coping strategies for the future. My approach is rooted in understanding and empathy, with the goal of helping you develop greater self-awareness and resilience. I believe that every individual has the capacity for growth and change, and I am here to support you in that journey.

Counselling is not about giving advice or telling you what to do. Instead, it’s about facilitating your own understanding and helping you find solutions that feel right for you. I work at your pace, respecting your boundaries and unique perspective.

Reaching out for counselling can feel daunting, but it is a courageous step toward prioritising your well-being. Whether you’re facing a specific issue or seeking personal development, counselling can provide clarity, relief, and a renewed sense of direction.

If you’re considering counselling, I invite you to connect with me to see how I can support you. Together, we can create a space where you feel heard, valued, and empowered to thrive.

Close to my heart is supporting neurodiversity and individuals experiencing neurological conditions, including Autism, Tourette’s syndrome, ADHD, OCD, and SEN.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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.
