About me

Hello my name is Ann and I’m guessing if you are reading this, you are thinking about counselling. I am a qualified professional counsellor/psychotherapist, and a member of the BACP (registration no. 350562). Originally I am from County Clare, Ireland but today I live and work in Rugeley, Staffordshire.

More importantly, right now you may be thinking of finding a counsellor that you feel understands and connects with you. I am a trained person-centred / integrative counsellor and psychotherapist, which means that I will draw on different approaches while focusing on your needs.

I work with young adults, adults and the elderly to make sense of the realities that life presents us with. All counselling/psychotherapy sessions take place in my purpose-built practice Nora House in Brereton, Rugeley, Staffordshire. The practice has two therapy rooms, wheelchair access, off-road parking and is easily accessible.

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.

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).
