About me
Is anxiety holding you back? Would you love to do more, talk to more people, go to new places?
Then a fear starts to overwhelm you so you stop! you can't let yourself, you perhaps don't really know exactly what the anxiety is about but that doesn't stop it being there. Then you feel bad for not being brave or strong enough and you beat yourself up for it.
It feels horrible doesn't it? Well what if it wasn't like that? What if you explored where the anxiety started? and instead of getting lost in that exhausting pattern you could start to change and become the person you've longed to be. After all that is the inner you, the real you, isn't it?
What I'm talking about isn't the happy, clappy, wake up and pretend you are in a good mood and the world will be full of rainbows and unicorns stuff. It's about exploring your life experience, finding what shaped you into the person you are, accepting yourself and using that as a starting point for personal growth. Learn about your true worth and value.
We will do this together.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have worked with clients at APAS (Addiction Prevention Advise Service), the Health Shop (Nottingham) and NRN (Nottingham Recovery Network) and in private practice for a number of years.
I trained at the Sherwood Psychotherapy Training Institute (SPTI) and achieved a First class BSc (Hons) in Humanistic and Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy.
I am a registered member of the BACP.
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.
