My path to becoming a counsellor began as a client myself. I experienced the profound impact of having someone truly listen, understand, and provide support through difficult times. That experience of genuine connection is what drew me to this work.

My work has supported people dealing with a range of life challenges, including those pivotal moments when circumstances shift unexpectedly through job loss, relationship changes, or other significant transitions. I have volunteered as a grief counsellor at Royal Trinity Hospice in Clapham, and I continue to volunteer at Accessible Counselling & Therapy (previously BCCS) in Bromley. In all areas of work, I value providing a space where clients can begin to more deeply understand the whole of their experiences, and emerge more grounded, more integrated, more in control, and more themselves.

I have lived experience of building a life in a place that was not originally home. Living between places and cultures has shaped my understanding of belonging, identity, isolation, and the often-quiet adjustments that accompany significant change.

More personally, I’ve had a lifelong passion for communication in general, with an MA in Sociolinguistics and a previous career as a communication therapist. These days, I remain fascinated by all aspects of how we articulate our inner experience - with words, and beyond. I have an interest in Jungian thought, and remain curious about messages our unconscious reveals to us through dreams, metaphor, and other creative forms of expression. While none of this will be front and central in our work together necessarily, I will always be coming from a place that is considerate of your voice and your message, and how you want to express them.

What connects all of this work is my commitment to providing a space where you can be authentically yourself, exploring whatever you're facing with compassion and understanding.
