About me
I have a background is in social science and cultural studies. My interest lies in culture, identity and their universal expressions. I approach this through the lens of humanism, and how we adapt to the rapid or slow impact of trauma, addiction, anxiety, depression, neurodiversity and their manifestations.
I have worked for many years with various charities, with those who feel marginalised within expressions of family, community or society. My approach is from a Person-centred and a humanistic perspective, for we are all unique with potential to heal and find our solutions to change things in our life.
I will accompany you on that journey of discovery and exploration with talking therapy and other traditional symbolic forms of expressions through the medium of art and poetry, for example mandalas.
I will provide the opportunity for you to explore possibilities in a safe and secure space for very human expressions of joy, sorrow, hope and loss; in this process we may pay attention to your thoughts, feelings and physical sensations; in essence exploration and empowerment.
You can book a free consultation/enquiry session; We can discuss availability and affordability; and can explore through conversation or an assessment how I can assist on your life’s journey.
I work with people of all ages and backgrounds, Monday to Thursday 10.00am to 4.45pm, sessions last 50 min, these hours can be flexible, and I am available for home visits.

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.
