Hi there! I'm currently completing my Doctorate in Counselling Psychology and have spent the last 10 years working with adults and young people aged 16 and over. I can offer you confidential support with a range of issues like anxiety, depression, and stress. I offer flexible session times and work remotely, so no matter where you are in the UK, we can connect either by phone or online.

I'm fully registered with both the British Psychological Society (BPS) and the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ (Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ). My experience comes from working in a variety of settings including prisons, hospitals, the NHS, GP surgeries, colleges, and various charities. I've specialised in areas like general and social anxiety, depression, bereavement, addiction, and trauma. I can also help with relationship problems, anger, and challenges related to perinatal/postnatal experiences.

Whether you're seeking counselling to explore your feelings and thoughts, or you're looking for personal growth, our conversations can help you gain a better understanding of your life, relationships, expectations, and fears. This can bring relief and provide greater insight into your current challenges and overall life experience.

When we work together, I use a combination of psychodynamic and person-centred approaches, and I often incorporate Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) when it's helpful. My focus is on understanding how you relate to and experience life. With my extensive training, I draw on psychological and psychotherapeutic theories and research to help reduce your psychological distress and promote your wellbeing.

In our sessions, I aim to create a genuine, empathic, and trusting space where you can feel safe to share your experiences. I respect your autonomy in choosing what concerns to focus on and the pace at which we work. For me, the therapeutic relationship is built on equality and trust. I strive to offer a safe, confidential environment free from judgement, where I can deeply empathise with your concerns. Research shows that the quality of the relationship between therapist and client is crucial to the effectiveness of therapy.

If you're ready to take the next step, I'm here to support you on your journey. Let's work together to help you find relief and greater understanding.

Before our first session, I offer a free twenty-minute introductory phone call.

Our first session is crucial for establishing how we'll work together and setting the boundaries of our therapeutic relationship. It's a chance for you to share your expectations of me as your therapist.

This first session is your opportunity to learn more about psychotherapy and ask any questions about my experience and practice. Confidentiality is of utmost importance, and I will clearly explain any limits to it, similar to the confidentiality offered by your doctor.

During this first session, we'll also discuss your expectations for our work together, the issues that have brought you to therapy and the changes you’re seeking. You'll have the opportunity to ask me any questions about how I work, the therapeutic model I use, and we can finalise payment details. This meeting should be a positive experience that helps you determine the best path forward.
