About the Therapist
As a member of the LGBTQ+ community I am extremely passionate about equality, diversity and inclusion. This permeates much of my work and I am continuously looking at ways to actively support the community and make my practice more inclusive.
Over the years since qualifying as a therapist, I’ve helped support many people in their exploration of LGBTQ+ related issues and I feel that I have a solid foundation for offering myself, my knowledge, and my experience. Each person’s story has touched me in some way, and I have learnt so much about resilience, shame, and the consequences of othering difference. I have come to know the importance of community, the need for safer spaces and the pain and beauty of navigating life as a queer person.

My training is in the humanistic approach of Person-Centred Therapy and I am also currently studying my masters in Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy. However, I do believe that I am and continue to be influenced by a wide array of different theoretical and philosophical perspectives, which allows me to offer an integrative and holistic approach to meeting my clients needs.
I believe that working with queer clients involves compassion, knowledge and a level of understanding that can only come from personal experience. Yes, of course any therapist can empathise with what it feels like to be queer, but I believe that sharing a real lived experience can facilitate a deeper therapeutic connection built on a foundation of understanding and solidarity.

My standard fee is £60 a session, but I can be flexible to accommodate financial needs, which can be adjusted as we go if that is helpful. I also offer some limited low cost spaces at £30 a session.
