About me

A very warm welcome to you. Finding a new therapist can be daunting, but you have already taken the first step. 

Life's challenges can sometimes feel overwhelming, leaving you feeling stuck, alone, or unsure of how to move forward. Whether you're grappling with anxiety or low self-esteem, navigating relationship issues, or seeking support through a major life transition, you don't have to face it alone. 

What to expect

Together, we'll create a safe and supportive space where you can explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences without judgement. My goal is to empower you to cultivate resilience, foster meaningful connections, and embark on a journey towards greater wellbeing. 

My therapeutic approach is rooted in compassion, empathy, and evidence-based techniques that are tailored to meet your unique needs and encourage open conversation. If we choose to work together, we will move at a pace that feels comfortable to you. 

Together, we can explore patterns, difficult emotions, held beliefs, and past experiences that might still need to be processed or challenged.

My Approach

I am a humanistic integrative counsellor. This means I use a range of therapeutic approaches, including Person-Centred Therapy, Transactional Analysis (TA), Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic Counselling, and Gestalt, which I tailor to each client. As a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), I adhere to their Ethical Framework and use it to inform and guide my practice

Next Steps

Not every therapist is going to be right for every client. This is why I offer a free, no obligation, 15-minute call to explore if I am the right therapist for you. During this call, I will explain how I work, listen to what you are looking for, and give you the space to ask any questions you might have.

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.

Accredited register membership

British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy

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.
