About me
If you are finding yourself repeating the same patterns, feeling stuck or unhappy with your current circumstances, or struggling to make sense of things, then counselling can help you explore these issues in a supportive environment.
I specialise in working with anxiety and have extensive experience working with depression, low self esteem and relationship issues. I am a registered counsellor for Stonewall and The Terrence Higgins Trust.
I use different therapeutic approaches depending on the stage of your life that the issues began to arise and the therapy I offer is tailored to suit your specific requirements. I hold the belief that with the right support we all have the capacity to change and to reach our full potential.
I offer short term solution focused therapy as well as long term open ended counselling and this can be discussed and then reviewed throughout our work together. I work with individuals aged 14 upwards and also offer telephone and online counselling.
My background:
I began my counselling career at Childline in 2007. Since then I have been fortunate to work with a number of high profile organisations including Mind, Anxiety UK, The YMCA and The Terrence Higgins Trust.
I provide short term solution focused counselling to several health insurance providers (Insight Healthcare and CBt Clinics) and am an experienced school based counsellor.
I deliver mental health awareness training to schools, colleges and organisations via my sister company Elemental Health Ltd and am also a Youth Mental Health First Aid Trainer.
I am an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and have been counselling since 2007.

Member organisations

British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
BACP is one of the UK’s largest professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy. Therapists registered with the Association fall into a number of different membership categories such as Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP and Registered Member MBACP (Accred), each standing for different levels of training and experience. MBACP (Accred) and MBACP (Snr Accred) members have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by the Association.
Registered members can be found on the BACP Register, which was the first register to achieve Accredited Voluntary Register status issued by the Professional Standards Authority. Individual Members will have completed an appropriate counselling and/or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but will not appear on the BACP Register until they've progressed to Registered Member MBACP status.
All members are bound by a Code of Ethics & Practice and a Complaints Procedure. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
Accredited register membership

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.
