About me
Many of the people I work with are managing well on the outside, holding down jobs, caring for others, keeping things together. But underneath, they're anxious, hard on themselves, and often feel low, numb, or unable to enjoy things in the way they used to. Therapy offers a space to understand what has shaped your experience and how you might respond to life differently. I don't offer a fixed programme, rather I work with you as an individual and adjust my approach depending on what you bring. I draw primarily on Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT), alongside elements of Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and relational therapy. From Autumn 2026 I will also be offering EMDR, an evidence-based approach for processing distressing experiences, having completed my accredited training. If you're struggling with difficult feelings or feel unable to live your life the way you want to, get in touch to arrange an informal telephone conversation.

Training and qualifications
I hold a postgraduate diploma in Counselling & Psychotherapy and I'm an accredited member of the British Association of Counsellors & Psychotherapists (BACP), which means I have been formally recognised as meeting high standards of training, experience, ethical practice, and ongoing professional development. In addition to my core training I have completed further development in Compassion Focused Therapy (CFT) and I draw on principles from Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) in my work. I am currently undertaking accredited EMDR training, due to be completed in July 2026. I am a member of a monthly CPD peer consultation group and engage in regular clinical supervision.
