About me

I am an experienced BACP accredited and UKCP registered counsellor and psychotherapist working long term and short term with individuals face to face and online. I work from a quiet room in Waterbeach village, just North of Cambridge which has frequent rail services from Ely and Cambridge and lies close to the A10 and A14. There is excellent, free parking outside.

I see the work with clients as a partnership in which we are both engaged to make sense of a client's emotional life with the therapeutic relationship at the heart of what we do. I work with a wide range of people of all ages and backgrounds. These include people working in public services, creative artists, students, teachers, academics, retired people, young professionals, managers and health workers. I have worked with a wide range of issues which have included depression and anxiety, grief and loss, stress, relationship difficulties, trauma and abuse.

I began my counsellor and psychotherapy training after many years working in education as a teacher and senior leader. My initial training was in psychosynthesis, an integrative, holistic approach which recognises a connection between body, feelings, mind and spirit. My work is continually developing and evolving as I reflect and update my practice through professional development opportunities. I am particularly interested in working with the body and breath to help people regulate difficult feelings or manage overwhelming patterns.

I welcome any questions that you may have.
