About me
My name is Angela and I am an experienced, trauma‑informed, Person‑Centred Counsellor with a background in educational and NHS settings.
My approach is not limited to specific issues and I will listen non-judgmentally and respectfully to you, whatever you need support with. Taking that first step is challenging and my aim is to make that step as supportive as possible. I offer a compassionate and grounded space where you can explore your experiences at your own pace, supporting recovery, growth, and self‑understanding. I am open‑minded, genuine, and empathic, with a healthy sense of humour. I value offering balance, sensitivity, and moments to pause. My commitment to working collaboratively and my belief in the counselling process continue to make this work deeply rewarding. I look forward to meeting you.

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
I offer both online or in person sessions as I understand it can be difficult to get to face to face appointments when life is busy. I have some Tuesday evening availability in Ellon at Thrive, though slots are limited. I also offer appointments though the day on a Wednesday. Please email to check availability.
