About me
I am an Integrative Counsellor with a small private practice drawing on multiple modalities depending on the presenting issues or areas of concern.
Alongside my private practice, I work as a school counsellor in the Surrey and South East London area offering counselling to both children and parents as well as, offering family support services. I also work for the NHS as a staff counsellor.
For many years I have had experience working with adolescent issues, trauma, anger management, as well as working with young people and their families suffering from depression, anxiety, grief, stress, addictions and insomnia.
I am able to offer solution focused, short term counselling or long term open ended psychotherapeutic therapy. I work in a supportive, caring, non-judgemental manner and offer a safe space for you to explore your thoughts and feelings.
Face to Face Therapy, Online Therapy and Telephone Therapy.

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
If you feel that counselling is something you would like to explore, the next step would be to contact me by phone or email and we can arrange a session to discuss what you would like to get out of therapy and how we would work together.
If you are considering taking that first step into therapy, just try it. I am here to stand by you and support you. Just think you really have nothing to loose but instead potentially more to gain.
