About me
I believe we are all experts of our own lives - however, sometimes we can lose that feeling of being in control. In the counselling room, the space is yours to explore your path and bring clarity and self-awareness to difficult situations, both past and present. When we embark upon this journey, it is led by you, in an environment that I hope provides you with safety and confidence to explore whatever it is you wish, knowing that it is confidential and yours to use however you need.
I am a registered member of the BACP and follow their code of ethics to ensure I am supporting you on your journey in a safe and therapeutic way. I work using an integrative approach which means the sessions are led by you, for you to get what you need from them - I am merely here to support you.
I have experience working with a diverse range of presenting problems including; depression, anxiety, neurodiversity, eating disorders, gender identity, trauma, loss, abuse, addiction, and other areas.
I have experience of working with neurodiversity within the counselling room and will help you to understand your neurodiversity, how it affects you and make any accommodations to the session to ensure it is as accessible and supportive as possible.

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.
