About me
You’ve likely come to the this directory searching for something… you might not even be sure what it is. I can only tell you that I aim to offer a safe, calm space where you can explore the things that are troubling you and brought you to this page.
I am a Person Centred Therapist, with a background of working with individuals and families who have experienced trauma, bereavement and loss, historical childhood difficulties and anxiety, identity and esteem issues, relationship difficulties and work stresses. In addition I have significant specialist knowledge/experience outlined below.
My goal of therapy is to offer you a safe place where you feel you can talk openly, possibly about things you have never talked with anyone else about before, and feel confident that you will be truly heard without judgement.
So, what next? If after reading the rest of my profile you feel you would like to take the next step - call or email me and we can arrange to set up the 1st session or answer any questions you might have. At this 1st session you can tell me more about what brought you to look for a counsellor and we will discuss your goals for therapy - whether that be making changes in your life, recovery from events, or trying to make sense of things going on around you. If you are happy with this 1st session we will agree frequency for future sessions, usually weekly or fortnightly, and date for a 2nd session.

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.

Further information
I offer counselling sessions from a Glasgow city centre based room. And currently have availability for face to face appointments with adults only on Monday and Thursday evenings.
I am on the 4th floor, with lift access. However there are 3 steps at ground level that would prevent wheelchair access.
All necessary Covid safe practices are in place and we will discuss these further before attending face to face sessions.
Please don't hesitated to contact by email or phone to explore what you might need from counselling and whether we would be a good fit. Please remember to check your 'Junk/Spam' folder if you haven't recieved a reply in your Inbox.
