Highly experienced counsellor (20+ yrs) providing a warm and confidential space. A limited number of reduced-fee spaces available upon request.

Hello and welcome,

With over 20 years’ experience, I’ve supported people from all walks of life across a wide range of issues, including anxiety, low mood, past trauma, relationship challenges, and life transitions. My approach is flexible and integrative—tailored to meet your unique needs and shaped by what you bring. Together, we’ll work at a pace that feels right for you.

Life can bring moments that feel overwhelming, uncertain, or too heavy to carry alone. Counselling provides a calm, confidential space to pause, reflect, and make sense of what’s happening. It’s a space for support, understanding, and meaningful change.

I offer sessions online (Zoom or FaceTime), by phone, or in person, depending on what feels right for you. This flexibility allows therapy to fit your life while still giving you a safe space to explore what matters most.

Getting started

I offer a free initial phone consultation, giving you the chance to share a little about what’s going on, ask questions, and see whether working together feels like a good fit.

I’d be very happy to hear from you.

Experience and Training

Over the past two decades, I’ve continued to deepen my skills through professional development in a range of areas, including:

Couples counselling, Somatic trauma therapy, Domestic violence and abuse, Stress and anger management, Neuro-linguistic programming (NLP), Cognitive hypnotherapy

From 2009 to 2023, I served as a core counsellor and supervisor at Brunel University London. During that time, I supported both students and staff in one-to-one sessions and delivered workshops on managing stress and wellbeing.

How I work:

As a person-centred/integrative counsellor, I believe deeply in the power of the therapeutic relationship and the importance of honouring your unique journey. We will work together at a pace that feels right for you, exploring various techniques to enhance your wellbeing and help you achieve your goals.

Areas of Expertise:

Depression: Providing a supportive environment to explore feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and loss, and helping clients find ways to regain a sense of purpose and joy.

Stress: Assisting clients in identifying stressors, developing coping strategies, and achieving a more balanced and fulfilling life.

Anxiety: Helping clients understand the roots of their anxiety, manage symptoms, and build resilience through personalized therapeutic techniques.

Confidence: Supporting clients in building self-esteem and confidence to navigate life’s challenges.

Loss: Guiding clients through the grieving process and helping them cope with feelings of loss and bereavement.

Anger Management: Offering strategies to manage and express anger in healthy, constructive ways.

Relationship Issues: Supporting couples and individuals in improving communication, resolving conflicts, and strengthening their relationships.

Free 20min. phone consultation

The first thing I would recommend would be a brief phone conversation.

This will give you the opportunity to tell me a bit about the issue you would like to process as well as ask me any questions you might have about counselling and how I work as a practitioner.

Sessions for individuals:

Your sessions will last for 50min. during which we will discuss your issue and explore the underlying causes without judgement but with an open mind. This new insight and practical tools will help you to look for new ways of managing problems more effectively. We will work together at a pace that suits you to support an affirmative and holistic process for any positive change to be lasting.

Sessions for couples:

Sessions will last for up to 60min. Couples often find themselves stuck in a lonely or even opposing positions to one another with communication at a low point. If you feel that you and your partner would want to learn new ways of interacting with each other, improving your connections and exploring healthier boundaries, then you might find that working with me offers you the right environment to do this in a safe and balanced way.

Highly experienced supervisor (20+ yrs) providing a warm and confidential space. A limited number of reduced-fee spaces available upon request.

Hello and welcome,

Choosing the right supervisor is an important part of your professional journey. Supervision should be a safe, collaborative space where you can pause, reflect, and explore whatever arises in your work. It’s a place to feel supported and grounded, while also being gently challenged to grow and develop.

I’m a Â鶹ԭ´´-accredited and registered counsellor and a certified integrative supervisor, with over 20 years’ experience in various settings, including Women’s Trust London, Brunel University London, and private practice. My approach is warm, relational, and focused on creating a space where you can bring your whole self.

I also offer monthly group supervision for up to four participants, currently held online to allow flexibility and wider accessibility.

If you’d like to explore working together, I offer a free initial phone conversation, giving us the chance to get to know each other, talk through your supervision needs, and see if we’re a good fit.

I look forward to hearing from you.
