I have experience working with neurodivergent clients, LGBTQIA+ clients, polyamorous relationships, and BDSM/Kink communities in psychosexual therapy, which underpinned by training. My practice is queer and neurodivergent affirming. I bring my lived experience as a queer, neurodivergent therapist.

My counselling training began in 2018, concluding with me qualifying in 2020. My course was integrative, based on Egan's three stage model. This included substantial training in humanistic, psychodynamic, cognitive and pluralistic counselling theories, grief and bereavement, addiction, psychopathology, and group counselling. Throughout my training we worked creatively, embracing collage, art and poetry. I have carried this over to my client work as I offer working creatively to explore mental health.
I am the Student Counselling Lead at Edinburgh College, and I run the counselling service. Prior to this I was a full time counsellor at Edinburgh College for two years. I sat on the BACP Spirituality Division Executive Committee for three years, writing for journals and delivering CPD to therapists. I offered counselling at a charity supporting fathers and male care givers during my training and for a year after qualifying. I also provided counselling for a homeless charity for two years.
I worked and volunteered for several years at a number of LGBTQIA+ charities in and around Edinburgh. I have substantial experience around mental and sexual health for Queer communities.
