About me

My work is rooted in understanding my clients current experience and the reasons for seeking therapy, offering the opportunity to explore, heal and grow. 

led by my client, my approach is trauma centred. Many of us have experiences in life that can be described as distressing, trauma is not always defined by a one-time traumatic event. It could be parental experiences, bullying, ill health, or bereavement that causes extreme distress. The relationship we build together will allow for exploration of past and present with a lens of ‘what happened to me rather than what is wrong with me’. 

I am also a qualified EMDR Therapist for both children and adults trained by EMDR Europe. 

EMDR can treat, Trauma, Anxiety, panic disorders, depression, eating disorders and OCD among others.

Registered / Accredited

Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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.
