About me
I have over 19 years’ experience working with people.
I'm a qualified psychotherapist and registered member of the BACP.
I am passionate about not only helping my clients to overcome presenting issues and difficulties, but I will work with you, at your own pace, using a blended therapy approach to suit your individual needs.
I work with people, on the here and now, addressing - anxiety, stress and depression that is making life feel overwhelming and exhausting, supporting general well-being and bringing moments of mindfulness into everyday life. Whilst, at the same time, working on deep routed mental health issues that are contributing to unhelpful repetitive negative thoughts, low levels of self-esteem, sleep issues and more.
For me, each of my clients are individuals and it's about getting the right balance for you - seeing what works and what doesn't work, promoting change together.

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.

Further information
The best thing to do is have a non committal - free consultation, so I can understand what you want to get from the sessions, I can explain how I and therapy works, you can ask me any questions that you might have, we can discuss confidentiality, and, if you are happy to proceed - next steps. This can be arranged via email or phone, which ever suits you best.
I look forward to hearing from you.
