About

I am a qualified, APCP pre-accredited counsellor and psychotherapist with a BA (Hons) in Counselling and Psychotherapy and over 300 hours of clinical experience.

My therapeutic approach is integrative, drawing primarily on Person-Centred Therapy and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). I believe that establishing a strong therapeutic relationship is fundamental to effective counselling, with particular emphasis on building rapport, empathy, authenticity and unconditional positive regard.

Central to my practice is the importance of understanding each client’s internal frame of reference, seeing the world through their perspective and appreciating their unique experiences without judgement.

I incorporate CBT-informed techniques to help clients identify unhelpful thinking patterns, explore the relationship between thoughts, emotions and behaviours, and develop practical coping strategies.

Above all, I strive to create a safe, supportive and collaborative therapeutic environment where clients feel genuinely heard, understood and empowered to work towards meaningful personal change.
