About me
I am a highly experienced counsellor and psychotherapist. I offer an integrative holistic approach which means I offer a blend of approaches according to your needs and that considers all aspects of your experience.
At the heart of my practice lies deep listening and creating a space where you feel truly understood. I also offer creative trauma informed interventions that can help when words aren't enough.
As an Accredited member of BACP I bring a wealth of experience in various therapeutic fields with both young people and adults and am a lecturer in counselling. My theoretical base integrates Gestalt therapy, attachment theory, transpersonal perspectives and energy psychotherapy.

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).
