About me

Welcome to Unity counselling.

You don’t have to face this alone.

If you’re struggling with anxiety, grief, trauma, addiction, or major life changes, it can feel overwhelming and hard to know where to turn. Reaching out for support is a meaningful first step and you’re already here.

I offer a safe, confidential space where you can talk openly, feel heard, and begin to make sense of what you’re going through. Together, we can explore your experiences at your pace, helping you gain clarity, build resilience, and find a way forward that feels right for you.

​I’m a qualified counsellor based in Eastleigh, Hampshire, supporting individuals on their journey toward healing, self-understanding, and positive change.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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.
