​​

I am a qualified Mental Health Nurse and Pluralistic Counsellor with over 18 years of experience. My approach recognises that different therapeutic methods benefit people uniquely at different times in their healing journey. Through collaborative exploration, we discover what approaches resonate most with you.

 

​I found healing through therapy and now dedicate myself to supporting others on their path of discovery. I currently work as a Mental Health Nurse in Dementia services while maintaining a private practice offering online, face-to-face, and ecotherapy sessions (talk and walk in nature).

​

My diverse training includes CBT, EMDR, Person-Centered Therapy, and assisted counselling. I believe in tailoring therapeutic approaches to each individual, often incorporating creative methods like art or object exploration. The quality of our therapeutic relationship and open communication are fundamental to our work.

​

With qualifications in psychology, philosophy, and nursing, I specialise in trauma, addiction, self-harm, and sexual violence. I am an Accredited & Registered Member of the BACP, adhering to their ethical framework. Beyond counselling, I'm a qualified personal trainer passionate about well-being through activities like 12-step programs, weightlifting, and yoga.

​

My research has been published in Crisis, The Journal of Crisis Intervention and Suicide (2015), evaluating helpline efficacy.

If counselling isn't the right fit, I can suggest alternative forms of support. Contact me through the contact page to discuss how I might help you.
