About me

Hi, my name is Chinedu Agu. I am a humanistic and integrative psychotherapist. Adopting a holistic stance, my training allows me to blend different techniques and theories for a bespoke or tailor-made approach to suit your problems. I offer a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space where you can feel free to find your own path and discover your goals.

It is not uncommon for you to feel uncertain about coming to therapy as many people find seeking help or coming to therapy quite daunting. Are you suffering from anxiety, stress, relationship issues, racial identity or needs clarity? I will hold your hand and together we can find meanings and answers in a space where you will feel heard and validated.

Whatever brings you to therapy, I am here to support you in overcoming those challenges. I will empower you with the tools you need to explore, understand and heal, enabling a better relationship with yourself and others. I work with adults, young adults and children from eleven years of age, offering a blend of face to face and remote therapy.

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

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).

Key details

Wheelchair user access
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.
