About me
I offer individual counselling in Basingstoke for adults who may be experiencing anxiety, trauma, relationship difficulties, stress low self esteem, bereavement or other challenges in their lives.
I provide a safe, supportive and non judgemental space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, experiences and past at your own pace. Together we can work towards understanding what is happening for you, developing greater self awareness and finding a way forward that feels right for you.
I work intergratively, drawing on different therapeutic approaches depending on you and what you bring to counselling. Sessions take place in a private, purpose built counselling room at my home in Basingstoke.

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.
