Based in Marlow & Bisham, I work with clients across Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, and surrounding areas, and offer online therapy to clients throughout the UK and internationally.

My work is grounded in a Personal Consultancy approach — Personal Consultancy integrates coaching, counselling, and psychotherapy. It combines the reparative aspects of psychotherapy and counselling with the generative tools of coaching, creating a versatile and effective approach. This allows us to work in deep and transformative ways, while also using coaching techniques when appropriate.

Clinically, my approach is Integrative, drawing on a range of modalities — including Person-Centred Therapy, CBT, ACT, Psychodynamic, and Existential — while also incorporating Coaching techniques. This enables me to support clients in making deep, lasting change, while also helping them move forward in focused, practical ways that build on their strengths.

This approach empowers clients to realise their full potential. It helps make the most of the therapy process — one that is often challenging and courageous, as it involves confronting fears and working through some of life’s most difficult experiences.

I lived in New York City for over twenty years and have firsthand experience of managing life in high-pressure environments. My interest lies in helping people fulfil their potential and navigate difficult times, and I know from my own experience how valuable therapy and coaching can be. 

I’m registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), and the British College of Therapeutic Professionals (BCTP).

I primarily work with adults, including individuals and couples, though I occasionally work with minors on a case-by-case basis. I work with people from all walks of life.

I am a member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP) and the British College of Therapeutic Professionals (BCTP). I adhere to the BACP Code of Ethical Practice. I undertake regular professional training in line with BACP requirements, am fully insured, and DBS-checked.

My Approach to our first session:

I offer a full consultation (currently £50). This allows:

A proper discussion about what's going on in your life.

An opportunity to explore whether therapy with me feels comfortable and appropriate.

A structured and professional environment where complex topics can be addressed safely and effectively.

Even if you decide not to continue with therapy, many people find the consultation itself valuable and insightful.
