About me
I am a relational psychotherapist trained in an integrative model of psychotherapy which encompasses elements of humanistic, psychodynamic and transpersonal therapies. I aim to provide clients with a reparative experience of relationship as a fundamental element of my work as a therapist.
I have been a qualified psychotherapist for 16 years and am a registered member of the BACP. In that time, I have worked with adult clients who have experienced poor mental health related to self-esteem, confidence and stress, past traumas, abuse, anxiety and depression, relationships and attachment, loss/grief.
I offer a safe, accepting and confidential therapeutic space where you can explore your feelings and work through past traumas or difficulties you may be experiencing. The focus of any work will always be what you bring to therapy and what you want to achieve.
Over time, the process of therapy can help you gain awareness of patterns of behaviour and beliefs that may no longer be serving you well and bring about healing change in aspects of your life, mental health and your relationship with yourself and others.

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.
