About me
Hello, I’m Beth. I'm a counsellor supporting you through life’s challenges
It’s not always easy to reach out for support - especially when you’re so used to carrying things on your own. But if you’ve found your way here, perhaps something’s telling you it’s time to talk.
I offer counselling in a calm, welcoming space where you can feel safe to explore whatever’s on your mind—without fear of judgment, pressure, or having to "have it all together." Whether you're facing a difficult time, struggling in your relationships, feeling unheard, or living with the ongoing challenges of chronic illness, you're not alone—and you don't have to face it alone.
I work with adults of all ages, and I have a particular interest in supporting people who are:
- Living with chronic health conditions, and navigating the emotional, social, and identity shifts that come with them
-Experiencing relationship difficulties—whether romantic, family, or friendships
-Looking to improve communication, set boundaries, or reconnect with their own voice
-Living with or exploring neurodivergence, including ADHD and autism
-Managing low mood, depression, or feeling emotionally stuck
-Simply feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or like something needs to change
My approach is grounded, compassionate, and collaborative. I believe therapy should feel like a human experience—not a clinical transaction. I’ll work alongside you at your pace, with care and curiosity, to help you make sense of what’s going on and find clarity, healing, or relief—whatever that means for you.
Where and how I work
I offer counselling from the comfort of my home-based practice, which is a private and peaceful space where you can feel at ease. Most in-person sessions are gently supervised by my friendly cocker spaniel, Betty, who’s always happy to meet new people. She tends to settle in quietly during sessions—but many clients enjoy her warm, calming presence.
I also provide remote sessions via video or phone, if that suits your life better—whether you're managing health conditions, balancing a busy schedule, or simply prefer the convenience of working together from your own space.
I understand that life doesn’t always fit neatly into fixed time slots, so I aim to offer flexibility in appointments wherever possible. Daytime and evening sessions are available, and we’ll always work together to find a rhythm that works for you.
Whether you're new to counselling or returning to it, my goal is to meet you where you are—with warmth, openness, and a genuine interest in helping you feel more understood, empowered, and supported.
If you feel ready to begin—or even just to ask a few questions—I’d be happy to hear from you.

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.
