About me
Welcome to my counselling profile. I'm so glad you've found your way here. I'm a fully trained and experienced Humanistic Counsellor with a person-centred approach which means that our sessions will be focused on your unique needs and goals. Life can be tough and I want you to know that you don't have to face it alone. As a person-centred counsellor my goal is to create a warm and welcoming space where you can be yourself and explore whatever is on your mind.
I believe that you are the expert in your own life and my role is to support and guide you on your journey. I'll provide a safe and non-judgemental space where you can share your thoughts, feelings and concerns without fear of being criticised or misunderstood.
Whether you're dealing with anxiety, relationship issues, self-esteem struggles or any other challenges, I'm here to listen and help you find your own answers. I won't tell you what to do or offer quick fixes, but I will be by your side as you explore your thoughts and emotions, helping you gain clarity and insight.
I take a holistic approach to counselling, considering your mind, body and spirit as interconnected parts of your wellbeing. Together, we'll work on building a trusting therapeutic relationship, where you can feel comfortable exploring your deepest desires and fears.
In addition, I like to offer simple creative activities to access thoughts and feelings that you may find easier to talk about using an image, a favourite piece of music, a drawing or entry from your own journal. All of these approaches and more, are available if you feel safe and comfortable enough to explore other ways of accessing your experiences, thoughts and emotions.
I know that taking the first step to seek counselling can be scary and bewildering. What is important to appreciate right now is that this first step is a positive move for improving your wellbeing and it takes courage to acknowledge that you need another’s support to do so. I'm here to support you every step of the way. Together, we'll create a space where you can be heard, understood and empowered to make positive changes in your life.
Please take a moment to explore my profile and my approach to counselling and my services. If you would like to meet me and have a chat please see my contact details here. I offer a free, no obligation 15-minute meeting.
Available for September - I have a limited number of client spaces available at a reduced fee of £35 per session, please contact me for further information.

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.
