About Me
UK-Based Counsellor & Trauma Therapist
I’m a qualified UK-based counsellor and trauma therapist, specialising in mental health support, emotional wellbeing, and trauma-focused counselling. My goal is to provide a safe, confidential space where you can explore your experiences, process emotions, and begin your journey toward healing and personal growth.
I hold a BSc (Hons) in Psychology and a BACP-recognised Diploma in Gestalt Counselling.
I am a BACP-registered counsellor, accredited by the Professional Standards Authority, and by the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS), ensuring the highest professional and ethical standards.
My approach is integrative, trauma-informed, holistic, humanistic and person-centred, supporting individuals dealing with anxiety, stress, low mood, relationship challenges, and the effects of past and present trauma.
With over 23 years of experience in the Mental Health sector, I have dedicated my career to supporting individuals through some of life’s most challenging moments. I began my professional journey within the NHS, working as part of a large multidisciplinary Community Mental Health Team, supporting individuals with complex needs and clinical mental health diagnoses.
Over the years, I have also worked with several well-respected charitable organisations, including MIND, Carers Centres, and the Drugs and Alcohol Services for London. My work in these settings has focused on one-to-one counselling for people dealing with a wide range of issues, such as anxiety, depression, trauma, and substance dependency and gambling.
In addition to my 1:1 counselling private practice, I have extensive experience supporting carers, young people, and university students, as well as providing counselling through Employee Assistance Programmes (EAPs) to employees across various sectors.
I am passionate about creating a safe, compassionate, and non-judgmental space where people feel heard, supported, and empowered to make positive changes in their lives.
My Therapeutic Approach
I offer holistic, integrative counselling designed to support the whole person, mind, body, and emotions. I recognise the beautiful complexity of being human and believe that everyone has the capacity to heal, grow, and thrive in the areas of life that matter most to them.
My integrative therapy approach combines evidence-based psychological methods, including Gestalt Therapy, Person-Centred Counselling, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP). This flexible blend allows each session to be shaped around your unique experiences and needs.
Working together in a collaborative and relational way, I create a safe, non-judgemental space where you can explore challenges, gain clarity, and build lasting emotional resilience. Whether you’re seeking personal growth, stress reduction, or deeper self-understanding, I’m here to guide you toward meaningful change.
