I am a Gestalt Counsellor (regsitered with BACP) and started seeing clients in 2013. This was through placements at Hampshire charities No Limits (young people) and Cruse (bereavement). From 2017 to 2019 I set up and ran a counselling service with London charity Positive21 (HIV). I am co-author of “Strength to Talk” which is dedicated to men’s mental health with all proceeds going to the charity Mind.

Anyone interested in counselling can have a free consultation session (30mins) to ask any questions and check that we could make progress.

After that I work online via “Psychology Today Sessions” (encrypted video service) each session lasts 50 minutes.

The model I use is Gestalt/Humanistic theory.

PGDip in Counselling, University of Edinburgh
Years in practice: 1
Offers:  Remote Therapy

I believe therapy can be truly transformative, offering a space to explore past experiences and how they shape our present. This belief comes from my work as both a therapist and a client. I work collaboratively with my clients to create a safe, empowering environment where they can make more productive meaning about their world and relationships.

My approach is grounded in empathy, curiosity, and acceptance, but when appropriate I also offer constructive challenge. I meet each person where they are, encouraging deeper reflection and new perspectives.

Much of my experience involves supporting individuals with anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, family dynamics, autism, trauma, and issues related to sex, gender, and sexuality.

Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling
Years in practice: 6

My approach is based in person-centred, mindful therapy which is less directive and more enabling you to recognise and develop your own inner resources. They are present within you but may have become entangled, buried or distorted through challenging life experiences. I offer a warm, welcoming and safe space to explore with you, how together, we unravel the knots to reveal who you are really meant to be, moving towards living a peaceful and joyful life.
