About me

Have your circumstances changed?

If you are experiencing anxiety, overwhelming feelings, or difficulties with relationships-

I’d like to help you.

If you going through loneliness and would like someone to listen to you-

I’d like to support you.

Trying to just get on with things often doesn’t work over time.

Managing changes and emotions on your own can be hard work.

 I have worked successfully with many people who experience low self esteem, anxiety, grief, relationship challenges, depression and panic attacks.Life can change unexpectedly and take us by surprise.  

If you need help dealing with change and life events please contact me.

I am a qualified counsellor.

I can listen to you, help you to understand what you’re going through and explore different ways of managing any problems you’re facing and work with you to better understand the emotions you’re experiencing.

My thorough training and years of continued professional development enable me to work with people on an individual basis focusing on each person’s unique needs.
Here you can talk in a safe confidential space and explore whatever is troubling you freely and at your own pace in confidence.

Where I work-I have a practice in Findon Valley near Worthing with free parking and a bus stop opposite.

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.

Accredited register membership

British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
Accredited Register Scheme

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).
