About me
I am an highly experienced and qualified Psychotherapist and Counsellor.
I can currently offer an immediate initial appointment for us to explore together what you may be experiencing at this time.
My current availability is Monday @ 1400 and 1700.
For individuals, I offer short and long term therapy. I am highly experienced in working with a broad range of issues such as depression, anxiety, ADHD, sadness, loss, relationship issues, anger and trauma, This list is not exhaustive so please enquire if you have further questions.
People can seek therapy when they are feeling vulnerable and experiencing a challenging time in their lives, often due to both current and past events and experiences. I will help you to explore and understand the challenges that you face and find solutions together.
I do not believe that people themselves have issues, I believe rather that they may have issues in relating to their world. Through our work together, I will assist you in exploring the patterns that you follow in your life. This exploration will seek to see where the psychological distress may form and work together to find new ways of being that can relieve this.
I offer a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space for you to talk about your issues. Our relationship is a key element to your development and that is why the first session will be used to assess what you would like from therapy and how we can work 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.

Additional information
My current availability is limited to Mondays and Wednesdays.
I offer a short introductory conversation, an opportunity for you talk about what is bringing you to therapy and what you want to get out of it, (although these things can change during the therapy itself).
You will be free to ask questions, and this is something you might wish to consider before the session.
Should you decide I am the right person to work with, we would discuss how often and when the sessions take place.
