About me
Hello, I'm Becky. A qualified psychotherapeutic counsellor and registered member of the BACP. Working in private practice, I offer counselling face to face in my therapy rooms, online via Zoom and over the telephone. Fully insured, my work is guided by the BACP's Ethical Framework.
Most people feel apprehensive before coming to counselling and finding the right counsellor for you can feel daunting. I fully appreciate this and will provide you with warmth, empathy and acceptance.
I believe talking in a safe and confidential space, free from judgment really can help during difficult times in our lives. Given time and space to be heard and understood can bring about positive change and be both an empowering and enlightening experience.
Whatever difficulty you are facing, I believe I can support you to understand the feelings you are experiencing and find a way to increase your ability to cope and feel better.
Passionate about my work, I care deeply about supporting people to explore the issues that matter most to them.
I offer a free initial 30 minute telephone consultation and welcome your enquiry.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am trained to use an integrative approach which means I draw from a variety of counselling theories to best meet the needs of each individual client.
I am a registered member of the BACP, and have a special interest in supporting families experiencing difficulties such as separation and divorce. I am also experienced in supporting individuals affected by loss and bereavement.
Professional development is important to me and I am continually updating my knowledge and experience.
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.
