About me
Are you looking to embark on a process of self discovery, personal development and growth? Perhaps you are facing overwhelming uncertainties, or realising that what used to 'work' doesn't anymore. Let us explore these together. We will work on the issues you bring to find fresh perspectives that will facilitate your journey.
I will engage my experience, knowledge and insight to support you understand, untangle and overcome challenges with renewed confidence.
I am a warm, compassionate and caring person, and you will find it easy to communicate with me in a trusting and confidential environment. I have many years' experience (including in education and in the NHS) of working with people from all walks of life and from diverse backgrounds, who find themselves in difficult situations.
We will be looking at your emotions, thoughts, physical sensations and life circumstances, work through your experiences in the present, as well as understand how past events and relationships may have informed and influence your life till now.
Please email me, if you are interested in more information or if you have any questions before committing to counselling. I am happy to provide a free consultation.

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.
