About me
Hi,
Would you like help to forge a new and better path forward in your life? Would you like to better understand what is happening in your life?
Life can be challenging and overwhelming and you could feel powerless to do anything to improve your situation. Maybe you are struggling with personal or couples’ relationship, behavioural/habitual issues, anxiety, loss, bereavement and grief, stress, anxiety, depression, trauma, PTSD, struggling with shameful experiences, low self-esteem, anger and lack of self-confidence.
You may also identify with some or all the following feelings.
- Have your past experiences left you feeling unheard, rejected, neglected, sad and angry?
- Do you feel isolated and feel that you do not belong even when you are among family and friends?
- Do you feel stigmatised because of your personality, issues, culture, race, religion, illness, or because you are different?
- Do you feel there is no one you can trust?
All these feelings which can come from life experiences and life challenges are understandable. We are only human. You can talk about it in a safe and non-judgmental space created, tailored, and aimed to meet your unique individual needs. A space designed to allow you to talk about whatever you want to talk about towards personal growth and healing.

Initial session (Assessment)
It can be daunting to embark on counselling journey when you don't know what to expect, especially if it is your first time seeking therapy. Even if you have had counselling before, it can still feel uncertain when selecting a new counsellor.
At the first session, we will discuss the concerns you are bringing to counselling. We will both discuss how the session works and how we can work together to create a trusting and understanding counselling relationship which will help us work better and will help you trust the process and benefit from your sessions.
Feel free to send me email or text with any question you may have.

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.
