About me
Hello, welcome and thanks for checking out my profile.
I am an experienced, highly qualified, psychotherapist supporting people with relationship issues, anxiety, depression, addiction, bereavement, addiction, family issues, low self esteem/confidence and variety of other difficult experiences. I have worked successfully with a great number of people from all sorts of backgrounds including Builders, Musicians, CEO’s, Psychologists, Teachers, Carers, Academics, Estate Agents, IT and Media professionals and Electricians.
Life can be very challenging at times and this can leave us feeling over-whelmed and perhaps out of control. Sometimes this can lead us to make poor decisions, think ill of ourselves or leave us stuck with difficult feelings. I offer kindness, no judgement and a confidential space to be really listened to. Bringing my many years of experience and expertise I can greatly improve your sense of agency and help you to feel better about your life, yourself, and often in a short period of time.
I offer short or long term face-to-face or remote counselling and am located in the Sherwood area of Nottingham, close to the city centre. I have immediate availability during the day time so you can see me quickly. I offer a completely confidential, non-judgemental, dignified service.
You can text, email or phone me with any questions and I offer a free telephone conversation to discuss what you are looking for.
Training, qualifications & experience
I obtained diploma level in 2013 and Masters level in 2017, am highly qualified, experienced and accredited with UKCP. I am also an individual member of BACP.
Having worked in a number of settings with a wide range of different people, I use a relational approach to get to know you and understand how we can work best together.
I am also undertaking clinical supervision training to supervise other professionals.
Member organisations
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) is a leading professional body for the education, training and regulation of psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors. Its register is accredited by the government's Professional Standards Authority.
As part of its commitment to protect the public, it works to improve access to psychotherapy, to support and disseminate research, to improve standards and to respond effectively to complaints against its members.
UKCP standards cover the range of different psychotherapies. Registration is obtained by training or accrediting with one of its member organisations, or by holding a European Certificate in Psychotherapy. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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.
