About me

As a neurodivergent counsellor, with both training in and lived experience of ADHD and autism, I am sensitive to the specific needs of individuals with neurodiversity coming into the counselling room. During our first session we will establish what small changes can be made to ensure the counselling space feels safe and comfortable for you. Counselling is different to coaching, I'm not here to give advice, but to help you to explore who you are, what is happening for you, and what that means for you.

Blending person-centred counselling, psychodynamic counselling and CBT I tailor counselling to you. Firstly I am here to listen to you and for you to be heard, with empathy and understanding, and without judgement. We may talk about what has happened in the past or look at tools to make daily life a little easier, but each session is led by you.

At Meadowbrook Counselling, we believe in a holistic approach to mental health. Our integrative counselling methods cater to your unique needs, ensuring a safe space for personal growth and healing for all adults aged 18 and over. We are here to provide a safe space to talk and to be accepted without judgement and from an outside the situation viewpoint.

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.

Key details

DBS check info

In England and Wales, the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS, formerly known as CRB) carry out criminal records checks for individuals working with vulnerable groups, such as children. To find out more, visit gov.uk , or contact this professional directly

Wheelchair user access info
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.

The counselling suite is on the first floor of the building, however there is a lift available. Please let me know if you would like assistance when booking so I can meet you at the front door.
