About Me

My Training & Journey

It had been in my mind for many years as a goal to aim towards, to train as a counsellor, following helpful support I received after my son was born. However, I didn't feel confident enough to pursue this at the time. I went for further counselling later which I found incredibly helpful (although challenging at times) and as a Christian I felt led by God to give back to others what I had received. This gave me the confidence to seek out training.

As a nurse for many years working in the NHS, I have also seen the power of therapy and felt called to be part of that. I believe that the challenges within my own life have shaped my desire to offer empathic and compassion support to others. I am experienced in supporting people to make changes they feel necessary to improve their lives, with well over 100 supervised counselling sessions.

I am a qualified counsellor and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). As part of my professional commitment, I work in accordance with the BACP’s ethical framework, which places great emphasis on client safety, confidentiality, and respect.

Alongside my formal training, my personal journey has taught me the importance of being heard and understood without judgement. I know how powerful it can be to have a space where you feel truly seen and accepted. These values are at the heart of how I work.

I continue to expand my learning through ongoing professional development, workshops, and clinical supervision, so I can continue offering safe, effective support to the people I work with.

Whether you're reaching out during a period of crisis, or looking for a space to understand yourself better, my aim is to walk alongside you with warmth, curiosity, and care.
