About me

Hello and welcome. I am a qualified and experienced psychotherapeutic counsellor (BA Hons in Integrative-Relational Counselling), working both in private practice and within an NHS psychological wellbeing service.

My training is integrative, which means I use several approaches to best meet your individual needs, in a tailored way. 

As a relational counsellor, I understand most emotional injuries happen in relation, sometimes with their origins in our earliest experiences and can  continue to have an impact throughout adult life. 

The therapeutic relationship aims to become the vehicle for exploring past hurt and also find new ways to integrate these experiences in a way that supports and benefits you.

I will work at your own pace, where I don’t believe change can be forced but that once you look honestly and compassionately at where you are at, it invariably follows.

I aim to provide a safe and welcoming environment so as to encourage you to freely express your feelings and thoughts.

I understand that the therapeutic process can be challenging and if you decide this is the right time for you to reach out, I am here to listen to you and help you find the best way forward. We would start with an initial assessment session, where we will discuss what brought you to me. This will also be an opportunity for you to get a sense of me as a practitioner and for us to see if we would like to start working together.

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

British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
Accredited Register Scheme

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.
