About me

With over 28 years of experience as a qualified, BACP Accredited Counsellor, I offer a safe, supportive, and confidential space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings without judgement. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, or simply feeling stuck, counselling gives you the opportunity to move forward and create positive change in your life.

I am a caring and compassionate counsellor who works with each client as an individual. My approach is integrative, drawing on techniques such as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Transactional Analysis, and Person-Centred Counselling. This means I can adapt our work together to suit your personality and needs. One of my specialisms is CBT, which has been proven to help with anxiety and depression � and I've seen many clients successfully overcome negative thought patterns and regain a sense of balance and wellbeing.

I work well with people of all ages, supporting individuals at different stages of life with their unique challenges. I offer both short-term and longer-term counselling, depending on what feels right for you. Alongside my private practice, where I've worked for over 25 years, I also have 15 years' experience counselling in GP surgeries. I am also a BUPA registered practitioner, and many clients access sessions through their health insurance provider.

I am a BACP Accredited Counsellor, which means I have been recognised by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy as meeting their high standards of training, experience, and ethical practice. This accreditation is a mark of quality and professionalism, giving you the reassurance that you are in safe hands.

My aim is always to create a space where you feel comfortable, supported, and understood � so you can begin to untangle what's troubling you and move towards the change you're looking for.
