ABOUT ME

I originally studied English Literature at university followed by a career in finance, working in sales and trading roles at global banks for over a decade. During those years I witnessed first hand the toll high levels of stress can take on mental health. Working long hours in a high-pressure environment, with constant stress and job insecurity, can easily lead to anxiety, depression, burnout, poor relationships, and the development of unhealthy coping mechanisms. This realisation led me to re-evaluate my own career path and consider the benefits of a more nurturing and fulfilling job. Whilst on an extended parenting career break I retrained as a complementary therapist and as a practitioner to work with people with eating disorders, and then as a counsellor and psychotherapist. 

 

I have a busy private practice where I work with adult clients from all walks of life and who have are experiencing a wide range of issues. I offer both face-to-face and online sessions, which allows me to work with people from all over the UK.

​

I have full public liability and indemnity insurance, an up-to-date Enhanced DBS certificate, and I practice under the ethical framework established by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).  This means that I am committed to working with you in a safe and professional way that empowers you to identify what choices you have available to you and what resources you already possess.
