About me

Whether it's a period of transition, a challenging relationship or just a sense of feeling stuck, I provide a safe and confidential environment for people to talk through their difficulties, receive support, explore options and learn new skills to help deal with the challenges of life.

How I Work

When working with you I see you as an individual with your own unique set of experiences and life history. It may be that you have a particular issue, problem, behaviour or goal that you wish to work on – or perhaps you’re experiencing a more general sense of stuckness, anxiety, depression or burnout.

I will work with you to develop new strategies for managing and relating to difficult or unwanted patterns of behaviour and explore how you can respond to yourself and to others in a way that is more satisfying for you.

About Me

As a father of two children and for many years working freelance in the design, arts and technology industries I feel particularly attuned to the modern day challenges of juggling multiple roles and the sometimes competing demands of work and family. As a performer I also believe we are all born creative and that living creatively is both empowering and satisfying.

My practice calls upon a range of therapeutic models including Gestalt, Transactional Analysis, Formative & Existential and I am influenced by the work of Carl Rogers, Stanley Keleman, Fritz Perls, Virginia Satir Irvin and Yalom.

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.
