About me
I am a qualified Integrative Neurodivergent Counsellor providing a safe, confidential, non-judgemental and supportive environment for my clients. It is important to me that my clients feel listened to and understood, enabling a secure professional relationship.
I believe that presenting issues can be a result of past experiences encouraging unwanted repeated behaviours, either consciously or unconsciously. Knowledge of ourselves promotes understanding and therefore acceptance of ourselves or our experiences. I can assist in exploring different coping mechanisms to contribute to the progress of personal growth.
I have experience of working with children, young people and adults.

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.

Further information
I am Ashford based at Maple Wellness Epps Building Bridge Rd. I am situated close to the M20, Ashford Town and buses 666 or 507 will take you a short walking distance to Maple Wellness.
Although I am trained as an Integrative Counsellor I work predominately with the Psychodynamic, T.A and Person Centred approaches. I look at repeated patterns of behaviours, dreams and childhood experiences to connect with why we behave the way we do as adults. I look at the triggers, feelings and emotions that sometimes come up, that we as adults struggle to understand. Knowledge, Understanding and Acceptance is and important journey, as we cannot have one without the other.
Appointments can be made by telephone: 07788156368
or email me using my contact form.
Maximum effort is made to accommodate a suitable time for the client, according to the clients needs.
