Member organisations
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) is a leading professional body for the education, training and regulation of psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors. Its register is accredited by the government's Professional Standards Authority.
As part of its commitment to protect the public, it works to improve access to psychotherapy, to support and disseminate research, to improve standards and to respond effectively to complaints against its members.
UKCP standards cover the range of different psychotherapies. Registration is obtained by training or accrediting with one of its member organisations, or by holding a European Certificate in Psychotherapy. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).

Additional information
Our Services and Fees.
Person-Centred Psychotherapy for Individuals
People enter into counselling for many different reasons, each with their own individual history, experiences, personal pressures and ways of coping.
I provide a safe and confidential place for you to talk though your difficulties and to explore your thoughts and feelings. The work will be done at your pace and you will be supported and cared for as I endeavour to understand your experience whilst offering insights along the way as you change and grow.
Many people who enter into counselling find it to be a life changing experience. The process of counselling facilitates deep personal insight and increasingly meaningful self acceptance. These qualities are then usually taken into personal and work relationships and are a catalyst for wider change and fulfilment.
I have specialist interest in the application of neuroscience to my clinical practice and how this is applied to working with anxiety, panic, low mood, trauma and PTSD and Dissociative Identity Disorder.
My Fees
I offer Psychotherapy (informed by and applying neuroscience) for 1 hour at £70 per session.
Supervision
I am a UKCP Registered Clinical Supervisor.
I offer clinical supervision at the rate of £60 Per Hour provided. This includes administration and emergency out of hours telephone contact. It is important that we can establish and sustain a supervisory relationship, therefore an initial meeting (at a nominal fee of £40.00) to explore our compatability would be necessary. Neither of us would be obligated to work together after that initial meeting.
