About me and my therapy practice

Sometimes we may feel stuck with situations and/or people; we may also cling to thoughts, beliefs and behaviours that we do not want to let go. By working collaboratively in counselling, we may enable a shift in our mindset and make changes possible. I am a HCPC-registered and BPS-Chartered Counselling Psychologist (CPsychol) and MBACP counsellor. I am bound by HCPC, BPS and BACP's ethical codes that include respecting confidentiality and having regular clinical supervision. I respect the uniqueness of each individual, and I practice integratively drawing on a range of therapeutic modalities to suit each person's needs and goals. My counselling approaches are further complemented by Eastern philosophies. As a counselling psychologist, I value trusting and honest therapeutic alliance and aim to provide a safe, empathetic and non-judgemental space, where people can be themselves, be heard and understood, and explore any present issues and/or something from the past. I have worked with different mental health issues in a wide range of contexts - workplace, chronic illness, sexuality, relationship, autism spectrum disorder (ASD), stigma/prejudice/discrimination, racism, drug and alcohol recovery, domestic violence, sexual abuse, and psychosis - in the NHS, higher education, charity and private sectors. My experiences have strengthened my understanding of the complexity of mental health issues, individual difference, and humanity.
