About me

“Logic will get you from A to B. Imagination will take you everywhere.” Albert Einstein

I am a fully qualified, BA (Hons), Integrative Counsellor and Psychotherapist and a registered member of The British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy. I trained with Greenwich University and keep up to date with regular training days and workshops.

I initially trained and worked as a professional actress. My interest in people and their stories drew me to acting. It allowed me to look behind the masks and feel the emotions beyond the words. Through this, I learnt to enter the world of others, gaining insight into what it is to be human with people from diverse backgrounds. Over time I became aware of wanting to work more directly with people, and further explore psychological and emotional wellbeing. This led to a job working in adult mental health.

My personal experience of counselling gave me a chance to explore my feelings; through this I developed new strengths and found new ways to live. First-hand experience of the big changes that can take place in therapy led me to train as a psychotherapist.

In my work as a counsellor, I am privileged to see how the therapeutic relationship can be transformative. Healing takes place within the relationship between the client and the psychotherapist. The alchemy occurs in a safe space in which people can learn to trust and find out what really matters to them.
