Positive Minds Therapy – Empowering You to Live Your Best Life

My Mission

With over 18 years of experience in private practice, including roles within NHS Mental Health Services and The Priory Hospital in Altrincham, Cheshire, I am deeply committed to helping individuals improve their lives. My passion for supporting others is at the heart of everything I do. I firmly believe that everyone has the potential to create positive change, and I am here to guide you on your journey toward personal growth and transformation.

As a fully licensed, insured practitioner and a proud member of the BACP ethical framework, I adhere to the highest standards of professional care.

My Approach: Integrative and Person-Centred Counselling

My approach to therapy is rooted in the principles of Person-Centred Counselling, which places you, the client, at the heart of the therapeutic process. This approach is built on the belief that you are the expert on your own life and that, with the right support, you have the capacity to understand yourself and make meaningful changes. By fostering a safe, empathetic, and non-judgmental environment, Person-Centred Counselling encourages self-discovery and empowers you to find your own solutions to life's challenges.

I combine this with an integrative approach that includes Solution-Focused Therapy, Wellness Coaching, Mindfulness, and Timeline Therapy. My method is collaborative, working closely with you to identify your strengths, overcome limiting beliefs, and develop practical strategies to achieve your goals. This blend of approaches facilitates a deeper understanding of yourself and supports lasting personal growth and transformation.

My Services

I offer a variety of wellness services, including both one-on-one and online video sessions, utilising a range of therapeutic tools and techniques. My areas of expertise include supporting individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, PTSD, phobias, and those who are survivors of abuse.

To help you take the first step, I offer a free, no-obligation phone consultation. Let's discuss how I can support you on your journey to well-being. You can contact me via phone, text, WhatsApp, or email and I will get back to you when possible.

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.
