About me

I have extensive experience of working therapeutically with both young people and adults - including couples work and as an approved counsellor for trainees.

Embarking on counselling can be a daunting process. I offer a safe and supportive environment for you to explore your feelings.

Your emotional well-being is important. Particularly at points of transition (such as adolescence, parenthood, break-down in relationships, career change, illness and bereavement) life can often be difficult to cope with. Having the time and space to be heard can be helpful in finding a way forward.

As a trained psychodynamic counsellor, I work with your past and present experiences. Together we will look at how this links with your conscious and unconscious thoughts and behaviour to make sense of current feelings and relationships.

I am also a certified Sandplay Therapist. This can be a powerful and creative way to explore material that may be difficult to verbalise and is often helpful for trauma based issues - for all ages  

Sessions are confidential, and you will always be listened to with respect and without discrimination. The therapeutic relationship is based upon acceptance, empathy and positive regard with an emphasis on developing a good working alliance that fosters trust and encourages new ways of understanding.

Individual counselling sessions are 50 minutes long and conducted on a weekly basis. This may be fixed-term (brief) therapy or longer-term (open-ended) therapy, dependent upon your needs.

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.

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).
