About me
Are you an overwhelmed parent, feeling stretched, stuck, or under-pressure to resolve family issues? You might be navigating parenting challenges, behaviour issues, relationship strain or separation, or struggling with the impact of midlife and the menopause.
When everything feels too much, I offer focused, practical counselling to help you make sense of what’s going on and regain a sense of clarity and control.
My approach is down-to-earth, and non-judgemental. Together, we create a calm, confidential space where you can untangle what’s going on, feel heard, and find a way forward that works for you and your family.
Training, qualifications & experience
I draw on my 15 years as a Family Support Worker with a national family charity which has taught me how valuable focused, compassionate support can be in finding your next steps forward. This experience has given me a strong understanding of the pressures families face and the importance of being heard and supported.
I also have a Masters in Psychotherapy and a Diploma in Coaching and I am a member of BACP
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.
