I am a qualified Psychotherapeutic Counsellor and Play Therapist and Registered Member of the BACP (MBACP).

 

Outside of counselling, I have worked in educational and care roles for ten years, supporting families, parents, children, and neurodivergent individuals. I value the diverse ways people experience the world, and my bilingual and bi-cultural background has shaped my sensitivity to difference, identity, belonging, and transitions.

​

In my work, I bring warmth, thoughtfulness, and depth. I believe life can be profoundly challenging, yet I also see it as a meaningful journey of discovery and learning. 

 

I approach counselling as a compassionate space for reflection and exploration, where playfulness, creativity, and humour are welcomed.

​

I am a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and practice in line with their ethical framework.

​​

If you’re considering counselling, you’re very welcome to get in touch. You can email me to arrange a free introductory call or to book an initial session, taking things at a pace that feels right for you.
