About me

Hello there!  I've been working as a counsellor and psychotherapist since 2010.  As an accredited EMDR practitioner, I specialise in working with trauma of all kinds.  I'm also very experienced helping people deal with anxiety, depression and bereavement. 

What is important in my work?

  • providing a safe and supportive environment for dealing with personal challenges,
  • building a warm and trusting relationship,
  • offering various ways of working - within my training - because different people and problems benefit from different approaches.

Experience

In the past I have worked for an NHS counselling service, four charities and in private practice. This has given me a lot of experience of supporting people with various life challenges.

Currently I provide counselling for young people at 42nd Street, a well-respected Greater Manchester charity. I also offer sessions in my Glossop-based private practice (and remotely via Zoom) for people of all ages.

Specialist training
In early 2017 I completed the standard training in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy and obtained accreditation with the EMDR Association UK in 2019.

My Advanced Certificate in Counselling for Depression enables me to offer an emotion-focused approach that works well not only for depression but for many other issues rooted in suppressed or unacknowledged feelings.  This way of working is IAPT-compliant, which means it has been proven to be effective in studies and is approved for use in the NHS.

How to get started
Informal enquiries by phone or email are welcome.  I feel it's really important you find the right counsellor, so I offer a free 20-minute video or telephone consultation, to help you decide.

Please have a look at my website www.growingwell.uk for more information, including testimonials from former clients.

Member organisations

Registered / Accredited

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
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.
