About me
My name is Danielle and I am a Counselling Psychologist registered with the Health Care and Professions Council (HCPC).
I draw on a range of psychological interventions grounded in acceptance and compassion to help you to get a better understanding of yourself and support you towards greater well-being. Whatever you are looking for support with, I will try to understand your experiences from your perspective and work with you to think about what you want to change and how you can move towards this. Regardless of the modality, I believe the most important factor is the therapeutic relationship, creating a safe, non-judgemental space between us.
I offer clinical supervision, with discounted rates for trainees. Please get in touch for more details.
Training, qualifications & experience
I hold a doctorate in Counselling Psychology and since qualifying I have worked in private practice and the NHS, where I currently hold a post as principal psychologist.
I work with a range of difficulties including trauma, anxiety and depression. I have experience of using different modalities including EMDR and trauma informed approaches. This range of experience allows me to ensure that the interventions I use are the best suited to meet the individual's needs.
I identify as mixed race and queer.
If you are thinking of starting psychological therapy, please contact me using the above details so that we can discuss how this can work for you.
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 HCPC are an independent, UK-wide health regulator. They set standards of professional training, performance and conduct for 16 professions.
They keep a register of health professionals who meet their standards, and they take action if registered health professionals fall below those standards. They were created by a piece of legislation called the Health Professions Order 2001.
Registration means that a health professional meets national standards for their professional training, performance and conduct.
