Who Am I?
You may be experiencing anxiety, stress, depression, grief, trauma, low self-esteem, burnout, or the ongoing impact of difficult life experiences. Perhaps you are struggling with relationship or couples difficulties, communication breakdowns, loss of trust, or emotional disconnection.
You may feel stuck, overwhelmed, or uncertain about your future, or notice repeating patterns in relationships, work, or behaviour that feel difficult to change. Many clients also seek support for workplace stress, leadership pressures, or balancing personal and professional demands.
Understanding yourself and individual differences can be an important step in improving both personal and working relationships, particularly if you find difficult conversations or conflict challenging, whether as a manager, employee, or in your private life.
You might be navigating bereavement, major life transitions, or feeling disconnected from yourself and your sense of purpose. For some, busy schedules, shift work, disability, or distance make online counselling a more accessible option.
If any of this resonates, you are not alone, and support is available in a way that fits your needs and circumstances.
I am a professionally qualified counsellor, psychotherapist, coach, and clinical supervisor offering integrative counselling, coaching, relationship counselling, workplace wellbeing support, and clinical supervision across the UK, both in-person and online.
I initially trained at Iron Mill College in Exeter and hold a BA (Hons) in Integrative Counselling awarded by the University of Worcester. I have undertaken additional training and gained a Master’s Degree in Counselling & Psychotherapy Practice with Bath Spa University, with a specialist focus on attachment theory and its application in both therapeutic and workplace settings.
Alongside my clinical training, I am an ICF integrative-trained coach, an Advanced Diploma qualified relationship counsellor, and hold an NCIP Accredited Advanced Diploma in Supervision. I also have a Level 3 City & Guilds Award in Education and Training and a Diploma in Online Counselling, enabling flexible support via video, telephone, or face-to-face sessions.
I am an Accredited Member of the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy), meeting their higher standard of ethical and professional practice. I am fully insured, attend regular clinical supervision, and hold an Enhanced DBS certificate.
My approach is warm, collaborative, professional, and evidence-based. I provide a safe, supportive, and non-judgemental space where you can explore difficulties, gain insight, and work towards meaningful change.
Alongside empathy and support, I also offer gentle and respectful challenge where helpful. A key part of this work often involves developing a deeper understanding of self and recognising individual differences, which can significantly improve both personal and working relationships.
This is particularly important for people who find difficult conversations or conflict challenging, whether in leadership roles, as employees, or within personal life. Clients sometimes notice repeating attachment-based patterns that affect relationships, communication, confidence, and decision-making. Together, we explore these patterns to increase self-awareness and support healthier ways of relating.
For some, strategies such as avoidance, withdrawal, people-pleasing, defensiveness, or emotional overwhelm can become automatic responses. By working with these patterns, clients can build emotional resilience, improve communication, and strengthen relationships.
Whether you are seeking counselling, psychotherapy, coaching, or clinical supervision, the focus is always on supporting your wellbeing, personal growth, and emotional clarity.
My work is grounded in extensive academic training and professional development in counselling, psychotherapy, coaching, and supervision.
I am a BACP Accredited Member, reflecting my commitment to high ethical and professional standards. I work in line with BACP guidelines, attend regular supervision, and maintain ongoing professional development.
My qualifications include:
Before becoming a therapist, I served for 17 years as a police officer, supporting individuals and families in crisis and working in high-pressure, trauma-exposed environments. This experience developed strong skills in communication, emotional resilience, and crisis intervention.
I have also volunteered with a crisis support organisation, providing emotional support to individuals experiencing distress, isolation, anxiety, and bereavement.
These experiences, combined with my clinical training, enable me to offer grounded, compassionate, and realistic support to people facing a wide range of emotional, relational, and life challenges.
I provide counselling, psychotherapy, coaching, couples counselling, workplace wellbeing support, and clinical supervision for individuals, couples, professionals, and organisations.
Sessions are available:
For organisations, face-to-face sessions can also include on-site visits to businesses. This can be arranged for small groups, team sessions, or dedicated days where managers and employees can be seen individually on the same day, depending on organisational needs and availability.
My integrative approach draws on:
This allows therapy to be tailored to your individual needs, whether you are seeking support for anxiety, depression, trauma, grief, relationship difficulties, workplace stress, leadership challenges, or personal development.
Understanding self and individual differences can be central to this work, helping improve communication, strengthen relationships, and support more effective ways of managing difficult conversations and conflict in both personal and professional settings.
My aim is to support you in developing greater self-awareness, emotional resilience, and healthier relationships, while helping you move beyond patterns that no longer serve you.
Whether you are seeking counselling, psychotherapy, relationship counselling, coaching, workplace wellbeing support, or clinical supervision, I offer a tailored and supportive approach designed to help you create meaningful and lasting change.
I also work with employers and organisations to support the personal and professional development of managers and employees who may be experiencing difficulties in leadership, communication, or workplace relationships. This can include supporting managers who are struggling to lead teams effectively, as well as employees who are finding it difficult to work with their manager or within team environments.
This work can help to reduce workplace stress, improve confidence and resilience, and support healthier ways of managing difficult conversations and conflict. By improving understanding of self and individual differences in the workplace, it is possible to reduce the risk of toxic working environments, improve team dynamics, and promote more respectful and effective communication.
Ultimately, this can contribute to reduced stress-related absence, lower sickness levels, improved wellbeing, and a more positive and productive workplace culture.
If you as an individual, couple or as a business feel ready to explore support, you can get in touch via the contact form on my website to arrange an initial conversation. Together we can discuss your needs and decide the most appropriate way forward.
I promise to be there for you every step of your journey. My goal is to help people grow from their struggles, heal from their pain, and move forward into their own sense of being for a better balance in life both individually, as couples or within the workplace.
Entering into counselling or coaching is not always easy. Both are different but both require self reflection. This means looking at the difficult parts of yourself and the challenges that you encounter. If you can make the promise to yourself, that you will engage in the process for healing and change, then please email me using the contact form link here, or at the bottom of my website so we can discuss and tailor your personal counselling therapy, coaching or supervision for your individual needs.

About Me
My approach is warm, collaborative, professional, and evidence-based, providing a safe and supportive environment where clients can explore challenges, gain insight, develop confidence, and achieve lasting positive change. Alongside empathy and support, I believe that thoughtful challenge can be an important part of the therapeutic process. At times, clients may find themselves repeating familiar attachment-based patterns that can affect relationships, communication, self-esteem, and decision-making. Where appropriate, I will gently and respectfully challenge these patterns to encourage greater self-awareness, personal growth, and emotional resilience.
For some clients, healthy conflict and open communication can feel uncomfortable, leading to default responses such as avoidance, people-pleasing, withdrawal, defensiveness, or heightened emotional reactions. By exploring these patterns together through the lens of attachment theory, clients can develop healthier ways of relating to themselves and others, improve communication, strengthen relationships, and build greater confidence in managing interpersonal challenges. Whether you are seeking counselling, psychotherapy, relationship counselling, coaching, workplace wellbeing support, or professional supervision, I am committed to helping you move towards greater wellbeing, stronger relationships, and a more fulfilling personal and professional life.
As with all professional counsellors who work ethically, I attend regular supervision and The BACP recognise that my working practice meets their higher standard as a competent, ethical practitioner by awarding me as an accredited BACP membership. I am fully insured and I hold an Enhanced DBS clearing certificate.
I am a professionally qualified counsellor, psychotherapist, coach, and clinical supervisor offering integrative counselling, workplace wellbeing support, relationship counselling, coaching, and professional supervision. I provide both in-person and online counselling and coaching services for individuals, couples, employees, managers, and organisations across the UK.
I initially trained with Iron Mill College in Exeter and qualified with a BA (Hons) Degree in Integrative Counselling awarded by the University of Worcester. I subsequently completed a Master’s Degree (MA) in Counselling & Psychotherapy Practice, specialising in attachment theory and its application within both therapeutic and workplace settings.
My specialist interest lies in understanding how attachment theory influences relationships, communication styles, emotional regulation, wellbeing, leadership, and workplace dynamics. By helping individuals, employees, and managers understand themselves and others through the lens of attachment theory, it becomes possible to improve communication, strengthen personal and professional relationships, reduce stress, manage conflict more effectively, and foster healthier environments both at home and in the workplace.
Understanding attachment patterns can help individuals develop greater self-awareness, emotional resilience, and confidence in their interactions with others. Within organisations, this approach can support employee wellbeing, improve leadership effectiveness, strengthen team relationships, reduce workplace stress and burnout, and contribute to healthier workplace cultures. Whether applied to personal growth, relationship challenges, or organisational development, attachment-informed practice can provide the foundation for lasting positive change, improved wellbeing, and more fulfilling relationships.
As an integrative counsellor and psychotherapist, I work with clients experiencing anxiety, stress, depression, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, workplace challenges, attachment issues, trauma, and life transitions. My approach combines evidence-based therapeutic methods tailored to each individual’s unique needs, helping clients develop greater self-awareness, emotional resilience, and healthier relationships.
I hold a Diploma in Online Counselling, enabling me to provide secure and effective online therapy throughout the UK. Online counselling offers flexible and accessible support for those seeking professional help from the comfort of their own home.
I am also an ICF Integrative Trained Coach, supporting individuals with personal development, career progression, leadership development, confidence building, goal achievement, resilience, and work-life balance. My coaching approach integrates psychological understanding with practical strategies to create meaningful and sustainable change.
Further professional qualifications include an Advanced Diploma in Relationship Counselling, a Level 3 City & Guilds Award in Education and Training, and an NCIP Accredited Advanced Diploma in Supervision. These qualifications enable me to work effectively with individuals, couples, professionals, and organisations while also providing high-quality clinical supervision for counsellors, psychotherapists, coaches, and other helping professionals.

Alongside my professional qualifications as a counsellor, psychotherapist, coach, and supervisor, I bring a wealth of real-world experience that informs and enriches my practice. Prior to training as a therapist, I served for 17 years as a police officer, supporting individuals and families through some of the most challenging and distressing circumstances of their lives. This role provided extensive experience in crisis intervention, communication, problem-solving, and managing the impact of repeated exposure to trauma.
I have also worked as a listening volunteer for a well-known crisis support charity, providing emotional support to people experiencing significant distress, loneliness, anxiety, and personal crisis. These experiences deepened my understanding of human resilience, emotional suffering, and the importance of compassionate, non-judgemental support.
While professional training and academic qualifications provide the theoretical foundations for effective counselling and psychotherapy, my lived and professional experiences have helped develop the empathy, authenticity, emotional awareness, and relational skills that are essential in building strong therapeutic relationships. This combination of professional expertise and life experience enables me to work effectively with a wide range of clients facing personal, relationship, workplace, and mental health challenges.
I offer professional counselling, psychotherapy, coaching, and clinical supervision services for individuals, couples, professionals, and organisations. Sessions are available online via secure video platforms, by telephone, or in person, providing flexible and accessible support tailored to your needs and circumstances.
As an integrative counsellor, psychotherapist, coach, and supervisor, I recognise that every individual is unique. No single therapeutic approach is suitable for everyone, which is why I draw upon a range of evidence-based models to create a personalised approach that best supports your goals and wellbeing.
My work integrates elements of:
• Psychodynamic Therapy
• Humanistic Counselling
• Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT)
• Transactional Analysis
• Attachment Theory
• Solution-Focused Therapy
This integrative approach enables us to explore not only current difficulties but also the underlying patterns, beliefs, relationship dynamics, and attachment experiences that may be contributing to them. Whether you are seeking support for anxiety, stress, depression, bereavement counselling and grief support, trauma, relationship difficulties, workplace challenges, low self-esteem, confidence issues, personal development, leadership growth, life transitions, or professional practice, therapy and coaching can be tailored specifically to your individual needs.
I offer a safe, supportive, and non-judgemental space where you can explore your experiences openly. Alongside empathy and understanding, I also provide thoughtful challenge where appropriate, helping clients recognise unhelpful patterns, develop greater self-awareness, build emotional resilience, improve communication, strengthen relationships, navigate bereavement and loss, and create meaningful and lasting change.
Whether you are looking for counselling, psychotherapy, bereavement counselling, relationship counselling, workplace wellbeing support, professional coaching, or clinical supervision, I am committed to providing a personalised service that supports your wellbeing, personal growth, and long-term emotional health.
