About me
I offer Individual and Couples Therapy In Person and Online Video & Telephone Counselling
In Person & Online Supervision.
I will also visit you for In Person Counselling.
I have been counselling in private practice for nine years and work from home in Dartmouth. I have a dedicated private room to see clients. I work with many clients experiencing depression, anxiety, grief & loss, low self worth and the myriad of problems life throws at us. If you are impacted by break downs with communication & relationships this area of counselling is where I'm most passionate. How we interact with each other, communicate, negotiate & ask for what we need, impacts our ability to form sound, healthy and lasting relationships. I can help you understand how or what is going wrong in your present interactions with friends, work colleagues and intimate partners as well as your relationship with yourself.
Good Relationships enable us to fully engage with life and impact every area of our well being and mental health. Attachment types & healthy boundaries are another key area where I can help you.
I am a qualified, professional MBACP Counsellor and Supervisor practising in Dartmouth offering a confidential, safe space to explore the many difficult problems life presents. I integrate various Therapeutic Models from a Humanistic approach including Transactional Analysis, Gestalt Therapy, CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy), Creative & Transpersonal Therapies. I am also a qualified Yoga teacher and can include Mindfulness and Breath/Body awareness for those curious to explore.
I am registered with the BACP and respect their code of ethical practice & values, regularly receiving supervision and professional development.

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.
