I am credentialed in the UK with 6 years of post-qualification experience.
I started working in the field of psychological support 14 years ago, facilitating behavioral change programmes. Since then I have worked with clients presenting a wide range of life challenges, allowing me to build-up a wealth of experience and knowledge.
In this ever changing world we live in, there is one thing completely within our control: how we feel and how we react. It can take time and effort to get there, but you don't have to figure it out alone - that's where therapy comes in!
Anxiety, depression, overwhelm, low self-esteem, difficult relationships, insecurity, self-criticism, loneliness are all signs that something in our life is off-balance. As a therapist it's my role to listen to your experiences, understand what's at the root of your feelings and work together to find a way forward.
More often than not, the struggles we encounter as adults are grounded to some extent in our experiences growing-up. This doesn't mean therapy is about digging in to every corner of your childhood, but our sessions will seek to understand where experiences earlier in your life may be unintentionally getting in the way of you confidently moving forward. We will find ways for you to heal and soothe previous challenges and traumas, feel a sense of calm and self-assurance and develop positive coping strategies should life present challenges in the future.
I always come from a position of the upmost respect for my clients and I offer a safe space to explore emotions and feelings without judgement or bias. Our sessions will be tailored to what feels right for you in terms of focus, pace, depth and level of challenge.
I use a blend of approaches to inform our work together. These include:
Cognitive behavioural therapy
Person Centered Therapy
Compassion focused therapy
Schema therapy
Attachment theory

Online counseling, also known as teletherapy, is a method of delivering mental health services through digital means such as video conferencing, phone calls, or messaging platforms. It can be an ideal option for individuals who have difficulty accessing traditional therapy due to geographical distance, time constraints, or personal preferences like privacy and comfort. Many people find it easier to open up from the familiarity of their own space.
Teletherapy has been found to be highly effective, with studies showing that it can produce similar outcomes to in-person therapy, particularly for issues like anxiety, depression, and PTSD. The flexibility and accessibility it offers make it a valuable alternative to conventional therapy settings.
