About me
I am a Chartered Counselling Psychologist, providing a compassionate, non-judgmental environment where you can explore your experiences openly and in depth. Whilst we learn ways to cope, we can sometimes become stuck and unable to move forward positively in our lives and relationships. Therapy can be a space where you feel supported in your personal growth, deepening self-awareness and nurturing emotional well-being. I have over 10 years’ experience working in mental health settings, including the NHS and private practice, with doctoral-level training in multiple therapeutic models including humanistic, psychodynamic and cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) approaches. I adapt my work to your individual needs, offering short-term or longer-term therapy, and support a range of difficulties, including anxiety, depression, relationship challenges, bereavement, burnout and stress, low self-esteem, and therapeutic coaching.
I work in person in Bagshot or online, with individuals or couples.

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.

Work Related Issues/Stress
Prior to re-training as a therapist, I worked in highly competitive and commercially driven environments. I understand the demands and difficulties which can be elicited from work related stress, the complexities of team dynamics within this context and long hours.
