About me
Hello,
I currently work online via Zoom with clients across the UK and offer face-to-face counselling in Suffolk
There are many different reasons why people seek counselling, including anxiety, depression, stress, trauma, bereavement, and a wide range of mental health challenges. You may be struggling with a specific issue, feeling overwhelmed by life circumstances, or simply sensing that something does not feel quite right. Whatever brings you to counselling, we can explore it together.
Counselling provides a confidential and supportive space where you can talk openly about your thoughts, feelings, and experiences. My role is not to judge, advise, or tell you what to do, but to listen carefully and work alongside you as you make sense of what is happening in your life.
Drawing on a range of psychological approaches and my experience as an integrative, trauma-informed counsellor, I tailor my work to meet your individual needs. I aim to create a safe, trusting, and supportive environment where we can build a therapeutic relationship and explore your experiences at a pace that feels right for you.
Through this process, you may gain new perspectives and a deeper understanding of yourself, your values, and the choices available to you. While we cannot always change the circumstances we face, counselling can help you explore how you wish to respond to them, enabling you to make choices that feel authentic, meaningful, and aligned with the life you want to live.
Training, qualifications & experience
I hold a Graduate Certificate in Counselling Psychology from City University London and a Degree in Counselling from the University of Suffolk.
My counselling experience includes three years working with parents at the Caterpillar Centre in Woodbridge, specialist work with Petals supporting individuals and couples following the loss of a baby, therapeutic work with children and young people through Place2Be in a secondary school setting, and working therapeutically with foster families. Over the years, I have supported clients experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, bereavement, postnatal distress, relationship difficulties, addiction, overwhelming life experiences, and periods of feeling stuck or uncertain about their place in the world.
I work in person, online, and via telephone, offering a warm, supportive space where we can explore whatever has brought you to counselling.
Before becoming a counsellor, I spent eight years living and working in Vienna and Amsterdam before returning to the UK. My career has taken me through international organisations, the music industry, and the media and entertainment sector, where I worked alongside people from many different cultures, backgrounds, and walks of life. These experiences gave me a deep appreciation of the challenges people face and the importance of feeling heard and understood. They continue to shape the way I work today, bringing curiosity, compassion, and respect for each person's unique story.
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.

The first step is to make contact. That can be done via email or telephone. I will then call you back and have a chat to see if I can help and arrange a time which suits us both to see you.
