About me

I am a Person-Centred Counsellor,registered and accredited Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy,and fully committed to abiding with the Ethical Framework of the BACP, which informs my practice.  You can be assured of my warmth, confidentiality and professionalism.

•   I offer flexible appointments
•   Long or short term counselling
•   Warm, Safe and confidential setting

I can work in a range of areas such as:

•   Low self-esteem and confidence building
•   Anxiety and depression
•   Counselling for physical, mental and sexual abuse
•   Trauma
•   Domestic Violence
•   General Counselling
•   Feeling stuck
•   Loss such a bereavement, divorce or redundancy
•   Health issues
•   Personal growth
•   Dealing with unresolved issues
•   Couple/Relationship Counselling

The first step is to arrange an initial session to discuss what you would like to achieve from counselling, how I work, and an opportunity for you to ask me questions.

If you decide that counselling is for you, and we both feel we can work together, then we can arrange some further meetings.  Sessions are usually weekly, at a specified time and last for 50 minutes.

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.

ACC
Association for Christian Counsellors (ACC)

The Association of Christian Counsellors and Linked Professions is a professional body representing and setting standards for Christian counselling and care in the UK. The organisation is made up of various different membership categories, including Counsellor and Accredited, and requires all members working as counsellors to undertake Continuous Professional Development on a regular basis.

Wheelchair user access
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.
