About me

Welcome, I’m Danielle.

I am an Integrative trained counsellor, with experience in trauma, particularly childhood trauma, wider family issues, addiction, anxiety and depression. By using a variety of therapeutic approaches and theories together we can tailor the therapy specifically to your individual need. I work with both young people from the age of 11 and adults.

Together we can create a safe, confidential, non-judgmental space to explore and use various techniques to help you, the client, make sense of your world. Our therapeutic relationship aims to enable you to experience a genuine and caring relationship with me, where you can reach a deeper level of understanding about who you are, as well as the experiences and relationships you have. Counselling can help you gain an understanding of why you feel and respond the way you do, give you tools to manage things differently and empower you to find your way to have the life you want.

As well as talking therapy we can incorporate play, art and creativity within the therapeutic space to support self-expression and make sense of feelings and behaviours no matter your age and background.  I have experience in working with concerns around attachment, developmental trauma, addiction, mental health concerns and neurodiversity including ADHD.

I also have experience working with those with addiction, specifically those in the construction industry and those who support them. Those who have experienced childhood trauma and those with brain injuries.

NCPS
National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society (NCPS)

The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society

This Not For Profit association of counsellors and psychotherapists aim to support the counselling profession, members and training organisations.

In 2013 the NCS register was accredited by the Professional Standards Authority under the Accredited Voluntary Register Scheme. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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.
