About me
I am a qualified, experienced counsellor/psychotherapist MBACP(Accred) offering counselling and psychotherapy in central Tunbridge Wells.
Counselling provides an opportunity for an individual to progress towards a more satisfying and resourceful way of living. It opens the door to understanding personal, emotional problems and conflicts.
Talking through problems that are deeply personal and troubling is often difficult to do. As a trained and experienced counsellor I will listen to you with complete confidentiality and without judgement, so that you are able to explore whatever is on your mind without inhibition.
My aim is to provide sensitivity and warmth in a safe and caring environment. My approach is based on the Integrative model in which I also incorporate Cognitive Behavioural Therapy where appropriate.
I work with men, women, couples and adolescents.

Member organisations
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.
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
Accredited Register Scheme
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).
