About me
Is it hard to talk about your problems with people around you? Hello, my name is Barbara, I am an experienced and Qualified Relationship Therapist offering in person and online counselling for Couples, Families and Individuals from my Private practice in Cobham, Surrey or Online nationwide. The work is collaborative and confidential, short term or longer term, depending on my clients’ needs. I offer an integrative approach, supporting my clients to feel alive and fulfilled in their relationship. Counselling lets you talk about how you feel, away from home life or work. You can't change other people, however, exploring your feelings can help you reflect on your choices and take decisions that feel right for you. Ultimately to be able to enjoy your life again.

Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.

The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society This Not For Profit association of counsellors and psychotherapists aim to support the counselling profession, members and training organisations. In 2013 the NCS register was accredited by the Professional Standards Authority under the Accredited Voluntary Register Scheme. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.

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.
