About me
I am an experienced on-line counsellor inviting you for long or short term therapy. I provide a warm supportive environment for counselling.
You will be able to see someone quickly to address your immediate concerns and get advice on how to reduce the stress and take the firs steps to help your situation.
in long term therapy you will be able to address the complex issues behind your current distress. We can use a variety of media, video, text and email to address your needs.
You are welcome to give me a call to let me know what you are needing from counselling and get a feel as to whether we are a good fit. You can book directly on my website: someone2talk2.online.
Most people feel a little anxious when beginning counselling and it is important to build some feelings of safety before walking into more difficult territory. Working with an online counsellor is no different. Building of relationship happens quite naturally as the conversation is close and focused around the worries and anxieties that you have brought. There is extensive evidence that this way of working functions well for clients and counsellors.
Training and experience
Your counsellor is a BACP Accredited counsellor with 11 years of experience in private counselling in Bristol and an integrated approach to meeting your needs. I have a Masters in Counselling and training in a number of therapies.

- CBT: changing thought patterns, supporting changing the way we feel.
- Online Counselling: I trained in the use of video, e-mail and text conversation and am a member of ACTO, the Association for Counselling and Therapy online

Member organisations
school 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 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.

Areas of counselling I deal with
Other areas of counselling I deal with
I have training in CBT, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Narrative Therapy, But over the years these have become integrated so that we can focus on what you need in any particular session.
CBT is highly structured and has a focus on the thoughts you have and how these can be changed. It helps you to monitor improvement in your situation as you begin to feel better.
Narrative Therapy, an opportunity to review and restructure the way you see your life. If you would like more information about this open-ended and sensitive way of working then you can look online at the website:www.dulwichcentre.com.au

Further information
I would like to offer a more holistic approach to counselling and ensure that we deal with all aspects of your experience. So I will enquire about relationships, work, finances, leisure and health and encourage you to plan and improve your experience in all these areas. I believe that looking to balance life in this way will do a great deal to support the healing process for any deeper underlying issues.
In my regular supervision sessions to keep my practice safe with you, I would not offer any identifiable details from our work together. However, in the event of serious illness, I will arrange for my supervisor to contact you to ensure that you were able to make a safe transition to other support.
I am still working online to shield my partner. While I would make every reasonable effort to ensure that our online work is secure, It is true to say that in the current environment we cannot absolutely ensure complete confidentiality on any known digital platform, and you also would have to take care that you keep your digital devices safe from intrusion.
