About me

I have over 27 years experience working as a counsellor and psychotherapist.

I work with a wide range of problems including Anger Management, Anxiety, Depression, Self Esteem, Stress, Alcohol and Drug Use, Misuse and Addiction. I have a special interest in working with couples, addressing all aspects of relationship difficulties and am experienced in working with couples at al stages in their relationship.   My work with people draws upon a wide range of models of counselling and psychotherapy, some traditional and some more contemporary.

I strive to find the best ways to enable my clients to get more of what they want for themselves.

I offer counselling, psychotherapy, supervision and training.

An absolute foundation of my work is respect for others and their individual lives and experiences, which may be very different from my own. I aim to be open to peoples needs and endeavour to find individualised responses to those particular needs. In this way I am able to avoid a ‘one size fits all’ approach. My aim is to work collaboratively and in ways that are nurturing, stimulating and facilitative.  I strive to find the best ways to enable my clients to get more of wehat they want for themselves.

Many peoples first contact with me is from a place of extreme crisis and/or distress. My approach is to provide a welcoming and safe haven from which to begin to explore ways to move on. Many clients who have believed that their experiences were too shocking to share have benefited from my warm, accepting and down to earth approach.

I believe that freedom of choice and self-esteem depend on knowing ourselves clearly, and attach great value to working through unfinished business from our past. I am interested in exploring ways that learned survival patterns can limit freedom and choice in everyday life. I am interested in working with men and women who want to know themselves more deeply. I have a particular interest in working with Adult Children of Alcoholic Parents and anyone whose life has been effected by another’s drinking.

I recognise that sometimes humour can be a useful aid to the healing process. I am interested in my own and others’ creativity and have enjoyed working with a variety of creative artists including painters, musicians, writers, ceramicists, sculptors and actors. I enjoy helping people rediscover and reclaim their excitement and passion.

Member organisations

Registered / Accredited

Registered / Accredited

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.

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred).

Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).

Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision.

Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training.

All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
