About me

I am a qualified Psychotherapist who is passionate about talking therapies and how they can help so many mild to moderate mental health concerns. I am happy to work with individuals or couples.

I follow the Core Conditions devised by Carl Roger’s for Person Centered Counselling which are genuineness, acceptance and caring, whilst incorporating the psychodynamic model. Person Centered Therapy is a gentle approach which involves working through the past with a view to finding out if those memories have impacted on the presenting problems. I believe in looking at the past in an analytical style whilst talking about the present to unlock the reasons for certain beliefs, fears and behaviours.

I am a strongly empathic listener and very person Centered. I have worked with clients who have had a wide range of concerns including stress, anxiety, parenting problems, physical and emotional trauma and abuse. I am psychodynamically trained which enables me to use a variety of tools in the counselling room often using the pluralistic approach of taking therapy as a journey with goals,, using tasks and methods along the way. I believe kindness, gentleness and encouragement of self awareness help the process of recovery.

I am fully insured, rigorously trained , adhere to the NCS Ethical framework for the Counselling Professions and am regularly supervised, this is a vital part of my work as it means I can maintain the highest standards of care. I have an up to date and clear DBS.

I would love to work with you and look forward to hearing from you.

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.
