Training, qualifications & experience
With a Post Graduate Diploma in Psychosynthesis Counselling accredited by the BACP and University of East London, I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy MBACP.
A Cognitive Behavioural Life Coach (CBT), including Happiness Coaching, I am also trained in Mindfulness Meditation with Mindfulness UK via the gold standard, Jon Kabat-Zinn Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction Course.
In addition to private practice, I work as an Affiliate Counsellor for the UK wide Employee Assistance Programmes The Employee Resilience Company and Health Hero. I have also worked as a Counsellor for RedArc Nurses, Sugarman Health and Wellbeing, Dover Counselling Centre, Carers Trust, Teens and Toddlers.
Over a career of 30 years combining support, empowerment, policy and counselling, I helped set up Empowerment Networks for Social Services and UK wide charities including Macmillan Cancer Support.
With a Bachelor of Arts Honours Degree in Politics and Sociology, I worked in policy and development for the public and private sector and gained a wide understanding of organisational dynamics and stress factors common to the workplace and life. This valuable professional experience continues to inform my counselling practice today.
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.
