About me
I began my professional life working in a psychiatric unit for four years and from there, I decided that I wanted to provide a more holistic form of care and talking therapy is something that I believe provides this.
Since 2012, I have split my time between working as a counsellor in a private practice, in Bristol, and as Head Counsellor at Sporting Chance Clinic. This is the only residential treatment centre in the world dedicated to working with elite and professional sportsmen and women suffering with addiction.
Training, qualifications & experience
I qualified as a counsellor from UWE in 2012 and am in the final two years of a Psychotherapy MA studying at BCPC (Bath counselling and Psychotherapy Centre)
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.
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.

Further information
In 2017, I was asked by the Government to speak at a roundtable to share my experience of treating elite and professional sportsmen and women with addiction and mental health issues. As a result of this the Government signed up to the Sport and Recreation Alliances ‘Mental Health Charter’.
