About me
Hi, I'm Beth, a registered person-centred counsellor with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), I am dedicated to providing a safe and supportive space for you to explore your thoughts and emotions. My approach is rooted in empathy and respect for your unique experiences. Currently living in Vancouver, Canada, my heart remains firmly connected to the UK, where I began my counselling journey. I'm passionate about giving back to the community that shaped me. I truly believe that healing begins with feeling heard, and I'm here to walk alongside you on your journey.
Originally from North Wales. I now offer online counselling to UK-based clients, over the age of 18, including those looking for support in Welsh. My personal and professional experiences have deepened my understanding of grief, change, and emotional well-being, which is why I am passionate about helping others navigate life's changes. Whether you're facing loss, anxiety, self-doubt, or simply need someone to listen, my goal is to provide a space where you feel valued and understood.
I know that reaching out for support can feel daunting, but you don't have to do it alone, if you're considering counselling, I'd love to hear from you.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have dedicated my career to supporting people through life's challenges, with over seven years of experience working with both young people and adults in various support roles- privately and within the NHS. My journey into counselling was shaped by a deep-rooted passion for helping others feel seen, heard and understood.
My academic background reflects my commitment to understanding human behaviour and emotional well-being. I hold a BA in Education and Early Years, an MSc in Applied Behaviour Analysis and Therapy and a Postgraduate Diploma in Counselling and Psychotherapy. These qualifications have provided me with a strong foundation in psychological theory and therapeutic approaches.
As I trained to become a counsellor, I volunteered with a charity offering counselling support to young people, and within a third sector providing online counselling for frontline workers. These experiences deepened my understanding of the diverse challenges people face and reinforced my belief in the power of therapy to create lasting change.
I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), which means I adhere to their ethical framework and continually engage in professional development to ensure I offer the best possible support to my clients.
At the heart of my approach is the belief that everyone deserves to be heard, valued and supported - no matter where they are on their journey.
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).
