About Me

After university, I spent over a decade working in global investment banking at some of the world’s leading institutions. During a parenting career break, I began to re-evaluate what truly mattered to me and made the decision to create a more fulfilling, nurturing, and people-focused career.

​

This led to a deep dive into holistic health and wellbeing, and over the last 20 years I’ve trained in a wide range of therapeutic approaches including complementary therapies, eating disorder treatment, counselling, psychotherapy, trauma therapy, EMDR, and integrative mind-body practices. My work draws upon this multi-layered background to support people in reconnecting with themselves, finding emotional balance, and living with more clarity and calm.

​

I run a busy private practice working with adults from a wide range of backgrounds. I offer therapy both online and in person (in Kent, near Orpington and Bromley), and I’m also an Associate Psychotherapist at Harbor, a private mental health clinic in Central London.

​

My approach is holistic and collaborative, honouring each client as a whole person, not just a set of symptoms or struggles. I work at the intersection of mind, body, emotion, and soul, bringing together insight, nervous system awareness, and practical strategies to help people move forward meaningfully in their lives.

​

I hold full public liability and indemnity insurance, an Enhanced DBS certificate, and I work within the ethical framework of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). My practice is client-centred and empowering, helping you discover what choices and strengths already lie within you.

Due to the complex nature of the issues that clients bring to therapy, I am committed to continually improving my knowledge and skills through further educational training and CPD.
