My Approach

My work is person-centred & experiential - meaning therapy is shaped around you, not a formula applied to you. The relationship between us is central. Not a technique applied to you , but a genuine collaborative space shaped around your experience.

Many of the people I work with don't need someone to tell them what to do. What they need is a relationship with enough depth to allow something quieter to surface. Not answers from the outside, but conditions for something genuine to emerge from within. So that inside and outside can begin to match.

About Me

I came to this work through experience as much as training - and that combination shapes how I understand the people I get to work with.
I'm an MSc-qualified, UKCP-registered Person-Centred & Experiential Psychotherapist offering individual therapy from a calm, private practice in Carrington, Nottingham, and online across the UK.

I work with adults who are driven, self-sufficient, or quietly resilient - people who hold things together well, often for themselves and for others, and who have reached a point where something else needs attention. Alongside private practice I have worked extensively within community, educational and third-sector settings including Nottingham Counselling Service, Nottingham Trent University, Nottingham Women's Centre and Childline.

Special Interests

Like all UKCP registered psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors I can work with a wide range of issues, but here are some areas in which I have a special interest or additional experience.

Anxiety often lives beneath a capable, composed exterior. Many of the people I work with don't present as anxious to the outside world - they're functioning, managing, holding things together. But internally there's a persistent feeling of worry, self-doubt, or unease that doesn't quieten down. I work with anxiety in a relational, exploratory way - not managing symptoms, but understanding what the anxiety is responding to and creating conditions for something steadier to emerge.
Relationship difficulties often have roots that go deeper than the presenting problem. The same dynamics repeating across different relationships. A difficulty with closeness, trust, or knowing what you need. Patterns that began long ago - in early family relationships or formative experiences - that continue to shape how you relate to others and to yourself. I work relationally, attending to what shows up between as a way of understanding and gently shifting what happens outside it.
I work with trauma in a way that is careful, paced and collaborative - including experiences that may not feel like 'trauma' in the traditional sense, but have had an impact. Early relational experiences, developmental trauma, or a persistent sense that something from the past continues to shape the present. We move at a pace that feels manageable, making sense of what has shaped you without needing to relive it.
