I see clients flexibly and to meet your needs and to be aligned with your budget. You can state a specific number of sessions at the outset and choose the frequency and flexibility of your sessions. You may want to prioritise what to work on and stay focussed within just a few sessions. Even one session can be beneficial for some.

I guarantee confidentiality.

Long-term and short term availability.

In person appointments now.

Counselling trainees welcomed.

Recognised therapist for BUPA.

My way of being with you is grounded in curiosity, compassion, and a belief in your capacity to create meaningful change.

I have a deep commitment to making sure you feel genuinely heard, understood, and supported. I am grounded in warmth, collaboration, and respect for your unique story. Meaningful change happens when you can explore your experiences at your own pace and without judgement.

Alongside my counselling practice, I am an academic researcher specialising in the lived experiences of midlife. This work continually enriches my therapeutic perspective, reminding me of the complexity, resilience, and depth that shape the inner worlds for both men and women. Whether I’m in the therapy room or immersed in research, I’m guided by a commitment to up-to-date knowledge, with ethical, reflective practice.

When you are ready for the next step, I am here to offer a safe and supportive space to explore what matters most to you. You don't need to be in crisis to gain from counselling. If you would benefit from being with a thoughtful, depth-oriented therapist, grounded in existential philosophy, come to counselling to explore what matters in your life.

Staying abreast of the latest research and advancements in counselling is essential for any therapist, and I am committed to maintaining a high standard of knowledge and practice.

I am midway through a research-based Master of Arts degree, and I see this as further steps to enhance the quality of service I provide. This commitment is designed to deepen and broaden my approach, allowing me to offer a more philosophical perspective on meaning, purpose, identity, and existence, as well as to strengthen both my clinical and academic expertise.
