About me
Special offer: 50% off initial session during April and May.
Life is so busy that sometimes we feel like we don’t have time to think. We keep plodding on, even though something doesn’t feel right. Taking a step back each week with me will give you an opportunity to slow down and reconnect with what is going on and what is important to you.
I work with a wide range of individuals, but I particularly love working with people who feel disconnected from themselves and their bodies. Often they have experienced either acute or low level trauma and feel ready to invest some time in better understanding themselves so they can make changes.
We will look at what feels most relevant to you when you come each week. We will likely explore how the past has impacted where you are now, and with this new understanding you will be able to make different choices. The body often has lots of clues about what is really going on, so we will work with the body, the breath and creativity to support our work. No artistic talent required – promise!
On a personal, level I love the outdoors and I trained as a yoga teacher (although I’m sadly not teaching at the moment). I’m a mum and have experienced living in different cultures.
It can be daunting starting the process of counselling, and finding the right person to support you is key. Feel free to contact me to discuss how we might work together.

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.
