About me
The decision to enter therapy can be difficult. I have worked with people who feel ashamed or even embarrassed about their reasons for seeking counselling. What I promise to offer you is honesty, understanding and a space completely free of judgement. I am passionate about helping people by providing a calm and nurturing environment that helps people work through emotional pain and distress.
Through my experience, I have a good understanding of the psychological, and sometimes unconscious, motivations that influence our behaviour and our relationships with those around us. Sometimes unhelpful beliefs are formed through childhood development or trauma and I want to help you identify any such patterns, with the aim of changing them.
The number of sessions I work with clients varies; with some people having as few as six or seven sessions and some people for a much longer time. It entirely depends on your individual need and we will continually evaluate progress throughout our time working together.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am an experienced counsellor with over 15 years of working in private practice and NHS mental health services.
I grew up in North Manchester and changed careers in my mid 30's to retrain as a therapist. I spent the first 3 years post-qualification gaining experience by volunteering for various mental health charities, before working for the NHS and in private practice.
Member organisations
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
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.
