About me
I am a professionally qualified therapist who offers counselling and psychotherapy.
We all deal with challenges in life and at times require emotional support. This can be due to upsetting events such as a traumatic experience or bereavement. At times we can feel ineffectual and have a general frustration with life. I offer a non-judgmental, safe and confidential environment to look at and explore the difficulties you may be experiencing. This will give you the opportunity to understand your thoughts and feelings and work through these difficult issues.
Whatever you are experiencing we can co-agree a way together to move forward.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have a Diploma in Integrative Counselling and have completed four years of advanced training in Transactional Analysis Psychotherapy. I work using an integrative relational approach to Transactional Analysis.
I have had extended training in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Post Traumatic Stress and Alcohol and Drug Dependency.
I am a member of British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) www.bacp.co.uk and am bound by its code of ethics.
I have a broad and extensive experience in various therapeutic settings including working in the NHS, drug and alcohol services and with clients requiring therapeutic support when in crisis.
I am also a qualified workplace mediator and have a wealth of knowledge and experience of resolving conflict and finding common ground in working and personal relationships.
Member organisations
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
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).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
