About me
Hi and Welcome to my profile.
I offer a warm, non judgemental and confidential space, each session is yours to share any issues you would like to bring, exploring them in your own time and at your own pace.
You are not alone, everyone faces difficulties in life from time to time that cover a wide range of issues, although this is a natural part of being human, it can also feel overwhelming and emotionally painful or thoughts can become magnified and confusing. I am here to offer support without judgement whatever the issue, everyone is on their own unique journey.
Having the space in therapy to explore and reflect on your feelings/thoughts, releasing them from your mind can feel freeing, bringing a sense of clarity and new perspective, as a result, this can help build inner strength and peace enabling you to cope better with your daily life and feel more content and balanced.
As part of the counselling process, I offer the core conditions of empathy, congruence and unconditional positive regard. I understand how daunting it can feel to open up to someone about your life that you don't personally know, so I believe it is important for you as the client to feel at ease and that you are being heard and understood so you can achieve the most out of the counselling process and help you to reach your goals. As a counsellor, I will listen and explore your problems with you, helping you to discover the answers for yourself.

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.
