About me

Where to start?

I appreciate if your looking for help, this can be rather overwhelming. Your doing great for reaching out and trying to work on the things that bother you. 

I can help

As a therapist i can help with a range of problems from anxiety both general and health, confidence and self esteem, traumatic experiences, among other issues you may experience.

Bit more about how i work

I have worked within mental health areas for the last 20 years and have experience within the family. I mention this to reassure i have experience of a range of different issues in clinical settings, so i am not phased easily. 

I am a person centred therapist who believes in offering a safe space to hear what is happening to you. I listen to your experience and walk with you on a journey to explore and unpick what is happening for you. 

This is a place for you to feel heard, validated, and time to think.

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

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).
