About me

Hello my name is Bridget I have been in private practise for over 20 years. I understand that you may be looking at my profile because you life path has become uneven, that unexpected challenges have become difficult to navigate. Sometimes we just need that support to find our way, I am able to help you walk your path and work through any obstacles, supporting you with each step, in your time, at your pace, exploring what you wish to explore.

I offer a compassionate and confidential environment for individuals and couples to explore their unique experiences and work towards lasting growth. 

I am an integrative therapist, I work with different theories helping individuals develop coping skills, improve communication and achieve their personal goals. I believe that I can empower the individual to create positive change in their lives.      

Is Counselling Right For You?

Sometimes in life we get stuck, we may not be able to make sense of what is going on in our lives, working with a counsellor can help the client move forward. I believe that someone who enters into counselling has great courage to admit that they have an issue and wish to enter into the counselling process.

What To Expect

I see clients on a once weekly bases, I contract with the client for six weeks and then review how the client is feeling and where they feel they are in the process.

I offer morning, afternoon and evening appointments. I work from home as I have found it is a more comfortable environment.


Online and telephone Sessions

In addition to face-to-face sessions, I can also offer teams, FaceTime, WhatsApp and  telephone sessions to clients who aren't able to make face to face appointments.

They work in the same way as face-to-face sessions; we start with you telling me what brings you to counselling and I can guide you through this difficult time and help you overcome these issues.

Training, qualifications & experience

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
