About me
Hello, I am Amy and a qualified Person-Centred Counsellor working with Adults and Young People (ages 12-18), offering face to face or online therapy.
In a world that can sometimes feel confusing, stressful, anxiety-provoking and overwhelming, it is no wonder that things can feel challenging.
Whatever is going on for you, no matter how you are feeling, I welcome you to come as you are.
My therapeutic style is relational, I consider myself to be approachable and friendly with respect and empathy at the heart of my work. I offer an open and non-judgemental space for you to reconnect with your true self.
My intention is to facilitate a safe environment in which you have the space and time to gain greater understand and self-awareness, that will allow you to grow in confidence and self-worth so that life’s decisions and challenges feel less daunting and overwhelming.
Training, qualifications & experience
Alongside my private practice, I hold the position of Service Lead and Senior Counsellor at a charity organisation in Gloucestershire, specialising in providing counselling services to children and young people.
I am assistant tutor on the Level 5 CPCAB Children and Young People counselling diploma.
With a focus on addressing a wide range of mental health challenges, I bring experience in supporting clients dealing with anxiety, stress, depression, low self-esteem, trauma, abuse, childhood trauma, self-harm, and suicidal thoughts.
I hold qualifications including the Level 4 CPCAB Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling and the Level 5 CPCAB Diploma in Counselling Children and Young People.
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.
