About me

I am a Person-Centred Therapist, working with a Humanistic approach, offering Counselling/Psychotherapy and Supervision in Southsea, Portsmouth and the surrounding area. I qualified as a Counsellor in 2001 and as a Supervisor in 2004. I am accredited by the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP) and registered as a UKRCP Independent Counsellor.

I offer confidential counselling to individuals, couples, families and groups covering a wide range of issues, in both long and short term focused work.

I also offer Online Counselling and Supervision - via Skype.

Some of my experience and special interests include: Relationships & couples counselling Stress & anxiety; Sexuality issues; Abuse of any kind; Bereavement, loss & grief; Work, school or family issues; Addiction; Anger & anger management; Loneliness & isolation; Self confidence & personal growth and Talking over past or present experience to lay them to rest.

I aim to offer a safe, reassuring space in which my clients can explore, in and honest and non-judgemental way, any unresolved problems in their lives - as well as the possibility of positive change, a deeper sense of autonomy and self respect.

I also offer Supervision to therapists and trainee therapists, either one to one or in small groups. As a supervisor I aim to build a trusting relationship with my supervisees. I hope to do this by striving to be open and honest myself sharing some of my own experiences whilst staying within the bounds of confidentiality. Whilst I both challenge and encourage supervisees to explore their work, my approach remains person centred. I have gained a varied experience of working with therapists from other approaches and am happy to continue to do so.

I strive to remain professional, at the same time, offer a gentle, warm and sensitive approach to my work. I promote equality of opportunity whilst valuing a person's individuality. As an accredited member of the BACP, I subscribe to their Ethical Framework for Good Practice in Counselling and Psychotherapy and I am subject to their Professional Conduct Procedures.

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.

Accredited register membership
