About me
Hi, I'm Carly.
I'm a psychodynamic therapist with a history in person centred counselling.
Working in an empathetic, safe, non-judgemental space, yet keeping it real, honest and down to earth is what you can expect from a therapeutic relationship with me. I welcome you to explore whatever issues are concerning you, and whatever comes up along the way. I've got you.
I work flexibly and creatively to suit your individual needs. This can include working with art supplies, clay and any other objects that help you express yourself and feelings, as well as traditional talking therapy.
I work with adults and young people in all areas.
I have extensive experience in domestic violence and sexual violence, parenting struggles and women's rights. Men, please do not be put off, you are welcome here!
LGBTQIA+ experienced and supporter.

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.

Additional information
Access to counselling is important to me, I try to make it as inclusive as possible and understand it can feel like an unjustifiable expense - where as its actually essential to a lot of people. So I do have some reduced rate slots available for those on low income or students.

Further information
Counselling can also be difficult to schedule in around work and family life. This is why I offer some evenings and limited Saturday morning sessions (Saturdays full price only).
I offer face to face sessions at my private and peaceful space in Burton on Trent.
I also offer online sessions, telephone sessions and email.
I offer a free 20 minute consultation phone call where i will do an assessment and we can see if we feel we are suited to work together.
Please feel free to email me with any enquiries, questions, or to book a consultation.
