NCPS Accredited Counsellor

Understand yourself, manage your emotions and rebuild your confidence

I help adults find calm and clarity when life feels overwhelming — whether from stress, loss, or major change. My approach combines warmth and structure, helping you to better understand yourself, manage emotions, and rebuild confidence.


I work with people facing anxiety, burnout, relationship difficulties, or grief, as well as those adjusting to new stages of life or seeking personal growth. Clients describe my style as warm and they appreciate that I offer more than just listening and nodding. Rather, I work with them to explore patterns, build insights, and find practical steps towards change while feeling genuinely supported and understood.


Maintaining mental and emotional wellness is essential for living fully. If you’re ready, book a free 15‑minute consultation to help you decide if counselling feels right for you.

Anxiety & Overwhelm

When life feels too much, anxiety can make even simple tasks exhausting. I help you understand what’s driving your stress, calm racing thoughts, and rebuild a sense of control so you can move through your days with greater ease.

Stress & Burnout

If you’re constantly running on empty, it’s time to pause and reset. Together we’ll explore what’s draining your energy, strengthen boundaries, and develop practical ways to restore balance and motivation.

Grief & Loss

Loss changes everything — whether it’s the death of someone close, a relationship ending, or a major life shift. I offer a safe space to process grief at your own pace, helping you find meaning and steadiness again.

Relationship Difficulties

Relationships can be both our greatest source of comfort and stress. I help you understand patterns, communicate more clearly, and navigate conflict so you can build healthier, more fulfilling connections.

Life Transitions

Change — even positive change — can feel unsettling. Whether you’re adjusting to a new role, stage of life, or identity, counselling can help you find clarity, confidence, and direction as you move forward.

Trauma & Emotional Regulation

Past experiences can leave lasting emotional echoes and patterns. I work gently and collaboratively to help you process trauma, regulate emotions, and reconnect with a sense of safety and self‑trust.

Fees & availability

I work online so you will need a stable internet connection with enough data and a private space (no one else present in the room).

I use GDPR compliant software to conduct my sessions. After the session has been scheduled, you will receive a link for our session. You will not need to download any software or create a login. Simply open the link at the time of your appointment.


Counselling sessions are usually 50 minutes in duration.

• Regular weekly sessions discount (4 sessions in a month) £50 per session

• Individual Drop-in session for mental health maintenance £55

• Under 25’s discount £45 per session


Payment is due at time of booking your appointment or at least 48 hours before your appointment time. If you need to cancel or rearrange, I ask that you provide me with 48 hours notice so I have the possibility of filling that appointment again.

Online Counselling- flexible, accessible support wherever you are

I offer video‑based counselling to make therapy more convenient and accessible. Sessions take place from the comfort of your own home, with no travel time or costs — ideal for busy professionals, parents, students, or anyone managing health limitations.

Online sessions can fit easily around work and family schedules, helping you access support even when life feels full.


While online counselling is a flexible and effective way to receive help, it does have some limitations. It isn’t suitable if you’re in crisis, experiencing intense suicidal thoughts, or struggling with serious substance dependence. In those situations, please contact your GP, NHS 111, or The Samaritans on 116 123 (UK & ROI) for immediate support.

Get in touch

Feel free to contact me if you have any questions about how counselling works, or to arrange an initial 15 minute assessment appointment. This enables us to discuss the reasons you are thinking of coming to counselling, whether it could be helpful for you and whether I am the right therapist to help.


You can also call me on 07415 988671 if you would prefer to leave a message or speak to me first. I am happy to discuss any queries or questions you may have prior to arranging an appointment.


About Me

I take a holistic, trauma‑informed and person‑centred approach to counselling, recognising that each person’s experiences, background and stage of life shape how they think, feel and relate to others. Our work together is collaborative and tailored to your individual needs, drawing on your existing strengths to support self‑growth and emotional wellness. I’m mindful of how past experiences can influence present challenges, and I aim to help you understand these patterns with compassion and practical insight. Through warmth, honesty and empathy, I create a safe space where you can explore your emotions, build resilience, and develop skills that empower you beyond our sessions.

Today, I run a busy private practice offering both online and face-to-face sessions from a central town location. I am also actively involved in volunteer work, supporting a charity that provides mental health assistance to veterans and facilitating free peer support groups for fellow counsellors and psychotherapists. I am fully insured, ICO registered, enhanced DBS checked, and accredited on the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society’s Accredited Register, along with holding a Graduate Basis for Chartered Membership with the British Psychological Society. 

 

I continue to update my skills via workshops and CPD courses in areas such as Grief, Pregnancy Loss, DBT, and the latest trauma treatment certifications, including the Rewind Technique.

I am a professionally trained counsellor with a rich academic and practical background. I earned a BA in Health Psychology, which provided me with a solid foundation in physiology, anatomy, and the mind–body connection. I was then selected to complete an Honours degree in Counselling, graduating with distinction. My training encompassed person‐centred counselling, as well as specialised practice in child and family therapy, trauma counselling, and HIV counselling during a 720‑hour internship. Highlights of my early career include placements at a police station in Soweto, South Africa, and within the HIV Mother-to-Child Transmission Unit at Rahima Moosa Mother and Child Hospital. I also completed a thesis entitled “The Impact of an HIV Positive Child on Their Caretaker.”

In the years that followed, I expanded my expertise by undertaking further training in standardised psychometric measures, with a particular focus on educational assessments. I worked independently as a school counsellor, employing a holistic, eco-systemic, neurodevelopmental approach to evaluate the systems underpinning learning, including sensory integration and reflexes. Later, I supported a school for neurodivergent students aged 14 to 19, assisting the Educational Psychologist with comprehensive assessments and providing crucial support, from exam accommodations such as extra time and reader or scribe services, to daily care for students with conditions ranging from dyslexia and ADHD to epilepsy and high-functioning Asperger Syndrome.

During the pandemic, I adapted my practice to meet emerging challenges by training and providing services to healthcare providers and acting as a Bereavement Facilitator for those experiencing pregnancy loss. I still run pregnancy loss support groups and have spoken to public groups on topics such as “Pregnancy Loss and Grief” as well as “Communication skills and Boundary Setting,” sharing insights drawn from my extensive frontline experience.

Thank you for considering my services. You have taken the first and most important step by reaching out for help and I hope to work with you soon.
