About me

Counselling for stress and anxiety when you don't know where to turn.

My aim is to provide a space where you feel comfortable to share what you're going through without judgement; no matter your background. You get to set the pace, and together we will explore what feels most urgent to you. My aim is for you to feel understood and able to picture a way through.

I work with adults individually at all stages of life with talking therapy. There is no homework, just genuine time to really figure out what's going on.

Please get in touch if you would like to arrange a free 30-minute consultation to find out if we would work well together.

Member organisations

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.
