About Me

Before training as a counsellor and psychotherapist, I taught English as a Foreign Language to a wide range of people, including students, adults, business professionals and prisoners. Working with people from many different backgrounds gave me a real appreciation of the challenges we all face at different times in life.

I chose to become a counsellor because I've experienced the benefits of counselling myself. That personal experience showed me just how valuable it can be to have a safe, supportive space where you feel heard, understood and accepted without judgement.

I'm a qualified counsellor registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and an accredited member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society (NCPS). I'm also a qualified counselling supervisor.

Alongside my private practice, I've spent the last four years providing counselling and emotional support to staff and students at Gordonstoun Schools. I've also worked as a Senior Counsellor with CrossReach, supporting parents through pregnancy and the early stages of parenthood as part of their perinatal counselling service. These roles have given me the privilege of supporting people through a wide range of life's challenges with compassion, respect and understanding.

Counselling offers the opportunity to explore what's happening in your life right now and how it's affecting you. Psychotherapy can also help you look more deeply at past experiences, helping you understand patterns and work through issues that may still be influencing your life today.

If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, unhappy, unfulfilled or simply finding life difficult at the moment, you don't have to face it alone. Together, we can explore what's going on at a pace that feels right for you, with the aim of helping you move towards a place of greater understanding, confidence and wellbeing.
