verified by TherapyRoute

“I have seventeen years of experience in working as a counsellor and psychotherapist, with individuals and couples. I offer my clients a safe space to explore their challenges and help them rewrite their narrative to find their own authentic voice. My work is governed by the ethics and code of conduct of British Association for counselling and psychotherapy. I am also a Psychosexual therapist and combine these skills with trauma informed techniques like EMDR, adapting the work according to the needs ofy clients. ”

About Me

I offer a confidential space where you can explore personal challenges, whatever they may be. My practice is built on rigorous ethical standards, ensuring you feel truly heard and understood. Together, we can navigate complex feelings or difficult situations, including those impacting relationships and intimacy. Clients often find comfort in knowing their journey is supported by a deeply committed and ethical approach.

Approach

Therapy unfolds with careful respect for boundaries and consent, creating practical, goal-focused conversations that feel safe yet honest. I work online or in person in English. I work at a steady pace, providing structured reflection, targeted assessment and practical skill-building between sessions so you can try new ways of relating. Sessions blend attention to emotion, relational patterns and sexual wellbeing, tailoring exploration to what feels most pressing. This way of working tends to suit adults and couples seeking clear, ethically grounded support through change.
