About me

I am a qualified Integrative Counsellor, offering a calm, compassionate and non-judgemental space where you can talk openly and take time to explore what is going on for you. I believe that being genuinely heard and accepted can help us begin to understand ourselves more deeply, particularly when life feels confusing or difficult.
If you feel that counselling might be helpful for you, then please get in touch.

You don't need to know exactly what you want to talk about or where to start. We can begin wherever you are. I offer a free no obligation 20 minute phone call for you to ask any questions, find out more about counselling and see if we might work well together.

Training, qualifications & experience

I completed the Advanced Diploma in Counselling and Psychotherapy at Iron Mill College, Exeter in 2026. As part of my course, I worked for over a year at a low-cost counselling centre in Poole, at the Ammonite Health Partnership in Bridport and online. 

Member organisations

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

British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
Accredited Register Scheme

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.
