About me
Hello I'm Alison. I offer individual and couples counselling. Are you looking for a safe space where you can share your thoughts and feelings without feeling judged? Do you feel anxious or overwhelmed but not sure where to turn to for support? Are you feeling depressed and need someone to listen to you who is calm and empathetic? Are you feeling sad about life at the moment and need to make sense of your goals and where your life is going? Are you struggling with challenges in your relationship and looking for a safe and calm space where you can both express your thoughts and feelings. Counselling can help you to focus on what matters to you and help you to understand yourself so that you can work towards having a more fulfilling life.

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.
