About me

After nearly ten years working in the corporate world, my growing interest in helping people, including myself, with their relationship with themselves and with their mental health led me to pursuing a career as a therapist. Three years volunteering with the Samaritans had shown me the power of actively listening and being there for someone when they need it most, or when they feel like there’s nobody else that will.

Since then, I have gained my Higher Professional Diploma in Counselling and Psychotherapy, and become a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I have presented a piece of research on anxiety at the BACP Annual Research Conference 2019 and have also completed a Masters in Counselling and Psychotherapy Practice.

I have worked with people from a variety of age groups and backgrounds on many life and mental health issues including anxiety, depression, addiction, sexual abuse, relationship issues, gender identity, trauma, work-related stress, bereavement, family issues, and self-harm.

The Person Centred approach

I am a Person Centred therapist which means I believe that therapy takes place when there is an understanding, accepting and genuine relationship between therapist and client. Under those circumstances, I will help you to find your own way through whatever issues you are facing, without fear of judgement or misunderstanding.

Professional registration

I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). Registered members of BACP have been appropriately trained, have regular supervision and undertake continuing professional development. We are also committed to working under the BACP's Ethical Framework for Good Practice in Counselling and Psychotherapy.
