I am a qualified counsellor, trainee psychotherapist, and Social Worker with over 16 years’ experience supporting people through grief, trauma, identity, relationships, anxiety, and life transitions. I work affirmatively with LGBTQ+ clients and offer a warm, inclusive, and non-judgemental space where you can explore your experiences safely and openly.   My approach is relational and integrative, drawing on psychodynamic and person-centred therapy. Alongside private practice, I have extensive experience within palliative care, bereavement support, and work with young people and adults navigating complex emotional experiences and early relational wounds.

I see therapy as an opportunity to explore, to challenge, and to develop new ways of being and relating. I engage with my clients in a real, authentic way, and invite them to do the same with me. I’m an experienced UKCP accredited Psychotherapist with over 14 years experience working in a range of mental health services. I’ve supported many people in leading richer and more rewarding lives. ​I work in a way that is open, honest, supportive and allows for lightness and challenge. Take a look at my website for more information about how I work.

At Serene Self Psychology, we believe that every individual has the potential to lead a fulfilling and meaningful life. Everything that you have learned to do in your life so far to alleviate distress is what you needed to do to survive. Sometimes these strategies might have been maladaptive/unhelpful and can become more unhelpful over time. We can learn more helpful (adaptive) ways of coping. Our ethos is to create a warm, accepting, and collaborative space to explore change.
