About me
Firstly I will listen compassionately and patiently to your story. Then we will start to identify areas for work, and your existing resources.
In early stages you may need to process difficult feelings about events or people in your life. I'll be there, as a steady, reassuring presence to make sure that you're not doing it alone.
We'll draw on my expertise and experience to develop you're strategies and personal resources, so that you feel more confident to engage with your Life and challenges
As our counselling relationship develops trust and depth, you can explore more of your story. When your story is received without judgement, and supported emotionally you will learn to:
- Listen and respect your voice
- Develop resilience and courage
- Have a different perspective and problem solve
- Develop self-compassion
- Take small risks and change
My expertise in human development & learning means that I tailor my work to your needs so respecting your pace, resilience and how you process information, learn and take new steps.
I offer a free 20 minute phone/video assessment, where you can ask questions about counselling and my working style.
My experience has been that; while many people have problems or difficulties in Life, people who come into counselling, want to do something about their problems!
I bring an acceptance of the individual with their unique strengths and attributes. Your abilities and potential may feel well hidden at the moment, and through counselling, we can locate them together!
Email, text or phone me.
I look forward to hearing from you!

Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
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.
