PGDip, MBACP | Online therapy and counselling in the UK
A space to be met, however you arrive.
If you’ve found yourself here, you may be thinking about beginning therapy. You might be feeling stuck or overwhelmed, navigating change, or struggling in relationships. Perhaps something significant has happened that feels difficult to process alone. Whatever has brought you here, I offer a safe space in which we can begin to explore together.
About Me
I am an integrative therapist who works relationally, offering a thoughtful and reflective space for people who want to understand themselves more deeply and explore the patterns shaping their lives.
My integrative training allows me to work with depth and flexibility, drawing on different ways of working in a considered and purposeful way. I am particularly influenced by psychodynamic thinking, which recognises that we are not always fully aware of what drives our thoughts, feelings, and reactions. Sometimes, therapy involves gently bringing these underlying processes into awareness so they can be understood, rather than unconsciously repeated.
I am an accredited and registered member of the BACP and am currently completing my Masters in Psychotherapy.
How I Work
The work we do together is grounded in the relationship that develops between us. I see this relationship as central to the therapeutic process, and I aim to offer a calm, accepting space where you can be yourself without judgement or expectation. I approach your experience with careful attention and curiosity, allowing space for your thoughts and feelings to unfold. Over time, this therapeutic relationship can make it possible to explore aspects of your life that may previously have felt difficult to approach.
In our sessions, we may look at current challenges, such as life transitions, relationship difficulties, or a sense of feeling stuck, while also gently considering how earlier experiences continue to shape the present. I work phenomenologically, which means I am interested in how you experience your world: how situations feel from the inside, how you make sense of them, and how your relationships and environment influence that experience. Counselling can involve reflection, discussion, and noticing patterns that have gone unexamined. Alongside this depth of exploration, I also offer practical tools when helpful, particularly when emotions feel overwhelming or confusing.
I work in a trauma-informed, culturally sensitive and holistic way, and I welcome conversations about meaning, identity, sexuality and spirituality. Counselling with me is collaborative. You guide what we focus on and at what pace, while I offer thoughtful enquiry and clinical guidance to support.
What brings people to therapy and counselling?
People come to counselling for many different reasons. Some arrive in the middle of a crisis; others simply know that something needs to change, even if they don’t know what. Whatever has brought you here, you don’t need to have the words for it yet.
Some of the things people bring to counselling includes:
- Anxiety and worry
- Childhood experiences and family patterns
- Identity and self-esteem
- Traumatic events
- Relationship difficulties
- Bereavement and loss
- Terminal or chronic illness
- Life transitions and feeling stuck
- Questions of meaning, identity, sexuality and spirituality
