About me

Sometimes life stresses can become overwhelming, and it seems as though there is no one to listen. You may be anxious, or losing sleep due to worry, unresolved past experiences, grief or fear. Together we can work through whatever is holding you back, with me supporting you on your journey.

I offer a safe space for you to sort through your emotions, experiences, thoughts and feelings and together we can explore your goals and visions for your future. I am an integrative therapist, working from a humanistic approach, so I believe we can all reach our individual potential, and I will draw from different approaches to provide the support you need.

Everyone deserves a better tomorrow. Tell yourself that this is your moment, reach out and I will provide you with a non-judgemental listening ear, empathy and understanding.

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.
