About me

Hi and thanks for checking out my profile. I am passionate that everyone finds the therapist that suits their individual needs, and feel this starts with a conversation to explore where you or your child are in the here and now. 

I am a practising therapist/coach and clinical supervisor with a specialism in children and young people. I co-founded and have clinically managed uhub therapy centre since 2016 and findhelpni since 2019.

I work as an Integrative therapist and supervisor and include creative therapeutic practices. I have experience in working with

  • ASD
  • Children and young people
  • Family breakdown
  • Adults impacted by childhood trauma
  • Mental health recovery coaching

I have vast training including - children and young people PG cert, mental health recovery coaching, Jungian sandplay therapy, compassionate inquiry training and also an additional certificate in creative supervision.

If you feel you would like to work with me I would be happy to arrange a free initial consultation to ensure that I can help and you feel comfortable working with me, I also feel that if it doesn't feel right I can safely signpost to other therapists and services who work in a similar way.

Member organisations

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

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).
