About me
‘What you seek is seeking you'
I'm here to go on a journey of exploration with you. Being a seeker, I have needed others to help and guide me along my path, some that I have chosen and others not. As your counsellor, I can accompany you and we can explore, understand and possibly heal from the challenges and obstacles you've had to face. I draw on both my lived and counselling experiences in adapting my approach to every person I meet, working together towards finding that inner peace we are all searching for.
When we are in a shared space, feeling safe and trusting, there is no topic, no experience, no feeling that we "mustn't" talk about. We can lift the veils and talk freely, be it, sexuality, gender, religion/spirituality, love, there's no judgement on my part. There's no fear in bringing diversity into our sessions and although my approach is predominantly Person Centred and Psychodynamic, I've recently been expanding and implementing different styles to find one that suits the unique individual I am with.
Also, having worked in the fitness industry for several years now, I believe in a holistic approach aligning the mind, body and soul. If you've read this far and would like a free call, for up to 30 minutes, then please reach out.

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.
