About me
I am a qualified TA (Transactional Analysis) psychotherapeutic counsellor. I offer therapy to individuals, couples and groups. I work with clients from different ethnic and cultural backgrounds, of different genders and ages. I offer a safe, non-judgemental, confidential space and together, we will try to help you find a way forward, exploring your current concerns in a way that feels comfortable for you. We go at your pace.
I offer short or long term therapy, online or in person; historically working with clients presenting with a range of personal difficulties such as depression, anxiety, stress, LGBTQIA+ identity, low self esteem, work challenges, grief and loss, couples and relationship issues, family, childhood and culture challenges, trauma, anger, abuse, life decisions and other personal struggles.
I am a member of the European Association for Transactional Analysis (EATA), the International Association of Relational Transactional Analysis (IARTA) and the Metanoia Institute. I am a registered Psychotherapeutic Counsellor with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I abide by the ethical codes of these organisations.

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.
