At the heart of my practice is a deep belief that each person is the expert on their own life. I offer a calm, non-judgemental and compassionate space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences freely and at your own pace.
Therapy is a collaborative process. I see my role as being alongside you—to listen with care, to reflect what I hear and sense, and to hold space for your experiences, even when they feel confusing or painful. As a person-centred therapist, I value your autonomy and inner wisdom. I won’t try to steer you in a particular direction, but I will support you in finding your own answers, in your own time.
Therapy isn’t about being given advice or being “fixed”; it’s about being truly heard. In our work together, you’ll have the space to explore thoughts, feelings and emotions without fear of judgement. This can lead to a deeper self-understanding, greater self-acceptance, and the freedom to make choices that feel more authentic and aligned with who you are.
Whether you’re feeling anxious, overwhelmed, grieving or navigating a major life change, therapy can offer the support you need to feel more grounded and in touch with yourself.
I offer a free 15-minute telephone consultation where you can ask any questions before deciding whether you want to book a counselling session.
I am an experienced psychotherapist with a deep commitment to supporting individuals on their journey toward healing, growth, and self-understanding.
I hold an MSc in Person-Centred Psychotherapy, a Clinical Diploma in Person-Centred Psychotherapy, and a Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling. My professional training was completed at the Metanoia Institute, where I developed a strong foundation in person-centred and experiential approaches to therapy. I have also undertaken additional training in Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) and Solution-Focused Therapy and can incorporate elements from these theories into therapy sessions for clients who feel this would be beneficial.
I am an accredited member of the UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) and I adhere to their ethical guidelines and professional standards.
I have worked with a wide range of presenting concerns, supporting clients through issues such as anxiety, depression, trauma, loss, identity, abuse and relational difficulties. I currently work with individual clients in private practice and as a therapist in the higher education sector, where I support university students navigating complex personal and academic challenges.
I also offer counselling for a charity dedicated to supporting individuals who have experienced abuse, whether domestic abuse, sexual abuse or abuse in childhood.
My belief in the importance of compassionate, non-judgmental therapeutic support helps ensure that whatever you’re going through, I offer a safe and confidential space where you can be heard, understood, and supported in a way that feels authentic and respectful to you.
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.
