About me
Do you want to understand your thoughts and feelings, talk about your worries to lift a burden or find different ways of thinking? if so therapy may be for you.
Sometimes we feel afraid, overwhelmed, angry, stressed or isolated and unable to deal with what we are going through. Stress at work, arguments, loss of a loved one, family issues or a break up for example can lead to negative thoughts and bad habits
I support clients on a range of issues but not limited to anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, stress and bereavement so they can re gain control and move forward. Clients I have worked with say they enjoyed the experience and have been able to find a better balance to life.
I believe in the gut brain connection for better health and taking care of yourself through nutrition, gentle activity, getting out in nature, and connecting with others.
As a Registered BACP therapist I offer counselling and psychotherapy for individuals 18+ to help you recognise unhelpful thoughts and behaviours that negatively impact your life and the quality of your relationships. I use my therapeutic knowledge and adapt this to suit your needs.

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.
