About me
I am a qualified and accredited member of the British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapy. My therapy offers you a safe and empathic space of warm compassion and understanding. I work with the approach that focuses on free will and the belief that with support, you have the potential to grow through being heard and understood towards self-discovery.
I offer pluralistic, humanist therapy through person centred counselling which means that I am led by you, working alongside you, to support you through a therapeutic process of psychological understanding, betterment and healing. Our relationship and trust is at the heart of our sessions so that you can feel safe and comfortable to bring whatever you want to bring. I offer you a confidential space for you to explore and process anything that you may have going on - both historical and in the moment, with complete empathy. Whether this is trying to make sense of and unpicking historical events or exploring current feelings and thought, I am here for you to facilitate a process of understanding.
Together we can work on open ended exploratory sessions or goal orientated ones. They can be a mix of both depending on how you would like to work, or to feel how the sessions are going once we have started. I am able to integrate coaching within my therapy work if you are exploring a results based experience. With this is mind, we can have regular reviews to see how we are doing. This is a good opportunity to assess how we are working and where we go further.
I have a deep awareness of 'otherness' which allows me to work interesectionally with identity, neurodiversity, gender identity, sexuality, race identity and heritage.

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.
