About me
I offer premium online services in EMDR, Psychotherapy, and Life Coaching tailored to meet your specific needs. As a qualified professional with extensive experience, my goal is to support you in achieving the positive changes you seek in your life.
My expertise lies in catalysing transformative change and promoting mental well-being through therapeutic excellence. I am dedicated to helping you unlock your full potential and cultivate a balanced, fulfilling life.
I am an experienced and Accredited EMDR practitioner, a qualified therapist (Transactional Analysis ) and Social Worker (Adult Mental Health).
I currently work in both private practice and as an EMDR trauma therapist within the NHS (an online EMDR service).
I have many years of experience working in the mental health sector as both a social worker and therapist. I currently specialise in working with people who are experiencing the effects of trauma sake
Training, qualifications & experience
Before becoming a Psychotherapist and Life Coach I worked as a qualified social worker for twelve years. During this time I have worked for various local authorities and some of the large children’s charities such as the NSPCC and Barnardos. This has involved intensive work with both adults and children in order to support real and lasting change. As my carer progressed I moved into a more focused therapeutic role and I now hold both a private clinical practice and one within the NHS where I work within an EMDR trauma service working with people who have experience complex trauma (PTSD/CPTSD).
During this time I developed a real interest in how to effectively lead teams and also in developing skills in order to work within extremely stressful environments.

- BSc (Hon) Psychology from the University of Liverpool

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.
