About Me

You Deserve to Feel Great. I’m Here to Help.

I am a fully BACP registered and qualified therapist and adhere to the BACP code of ethics.

At the heart of everything I’ve done in my past career has been my interest and curiosity in people. Public relations, marketing, television production and pastoral care in education have all prepared me for the vocation I have found.

Whilst I, like anyone, will inevitably be a product of my own life experiences, my over-arching belief in person-centred therapy simply places you in the centre and recognises that you are the expert on you. In this sense, my role is to walk alongside you through your therapeutic journey, helping you navigate your way through difficult emotions, thoughts, and behaviours, at your pace and led by you.

At the heart of my practice is the importance of the therapeutic relationship – the trust between us is paramount and must come from both sides. If we are to walk together on a journey that can sometimes be challenging or uncomfortable, we must share a mutual trust and respect. This is reflected in all aspects of my work, from my approach to the therapy room through to the terms under which I practice. Once we have mutual trust and respect, we have the solid foundation for your therapeutic journey and the best chance of achieving the goal of contentment in your life.

My specialties are working with adolescents, working with individual adults, and working with couples.

There are myriad issues and concerns that might emerge in therapy but here is a non-exhaustive list of some of the more common:

• • Career stress and change
  • Relationship problems and breakdown
  • Peri-menopausal and menopausal issues
  • Bereavement
  • Dislocation and disconnection
  • Anxiety, stress, and depression
  • Fear of the future
  • Change and adaptation anxiety
  • Unsettlement and low self-confidence
  • Trauma in childhood and later in life
  • Low self-esteem
  • Disappointment
  • Workplace bullying or undue pressure
