About me
Do you find yourself doing all the giving in relationships and not getting much back? Do you have empathy for others but find it difficult to express your own needs? Maybe you struggle with saying no and setting boundaries. Or you put down a boundary but then break it because you feel guilty. Do you feel anxious in social situations and compare yourself negatively against others? You might have tried tips from self-help books or social media with limited success or read about the importance of self-love without really knowing what this would look like or how to achieve it. Therapy can help.
I am a counsellor and psychotherapist, qualified to MA degree level and experienced in helping clients to improve their self-confidence and self-esteem and gain a better sense of their own power and worth. I can support you in gaining the confidence to go for what you want, communicate your needs to others and also in dealing with difficult relationships.
Sometimes people come to therapy when life's been tough for a long time. Other times it's a bereavement, loss or other sudden change which prompts them to get in touch. I have experience of working in a specialist bereavement centre and understand how a bereavement or other major loss can destroy the world as we know it and leave us questioning what we are left with.

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.

Further information
I work from a person-centred core which means that I recognise you as the expert on your own life and as a natural authority on what is and isn't right for you. My practice is also informed by attachment theory and the psychodynamic approach which involves helping you to identify and work with long standing patterns of relating. I am trauma aware and use the 3 stage model ensuring safety.
