About me

I work full-time on-line, usually via Zoom, but also on WhatsApp, Skype and FaceTime. A separate link is sent during virtual EMDR treatments.

My training is varied and on-going, and my approach is taylor-made to the individual. Specialising in trauma and its consequences, I work with individuals to help reduce and/or manage anxiety  and other symptoms of PTSD such as sleep difficulty, hypervigilance and depression. I am specifically trained to work with grief and the bereavement process including dificulties related to facing new challenges  during unexpected life transitions. Additional focuses of my work include working with low self-esteem and loss of confidence, stress management, reduction of symptoms of phobias, as well as general emotional support.

Many people find it helpful to talk about personal concerns in a safe environment where difficult issues can be explored with sensitivity.

Training, qualifications & experience

I am a BACP accredited psychotherapist, a Relate accredited relationship counsellor and an accredited EMDR practitioner (Level III). I have a Master's Degree in Psychotherapy and Counselling, a Diploma in Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy and I am a qualified Supervisor.

Member organisations

school Registered / Accredited

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
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

British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
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).

This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
