About me
Are you struggling with anxiety or feeling low? Perhaps a recent life change has left you questioning your identity, or you're feeling overwhelmed after a traumatic experience or an abusive relationship? Maybe you've been diagnosed with ADHD as an adult, or you suspect you might have it and need a safe space to understand what it means for you?
You might be coping with the loss of a loved one or a recent breakup, finding it hard to regain your footing and rediscover joy? Are you seeking support to develop effective coping strategies, boost your confidence, and improve your self-esteem?
Hello, I'm Fran! I understand that everyone’s journey is unique, and I know how challenging it can be to take that first step and get in touch. Rest assured, I'm here to offer a safe, empathetic, and non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings. My approach is warm and collaborative, tailored to suit your individual needs. I draw on various therapeutic techniques to help you find balance and empower you to identify and address your own needs.
Like many others, I have experienced anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, bereavement, trauma, and health issues. I understand what it's like to feel down, anxious, insecure, stuck, and lonely. Having experienced therapy myself, I know it can be challenging to share difficult thoughts and feelings with someone unfamiliar at first. My training has equipped me with the skills and knowledge to support you in processing your thoughts and emotions, and I am here to help you navigate these challenges.
I work with individuals (18+) who are experiencing anxiety, depression, ADHD, trauma, bereavement, domestic abuse, emotional abuse, sexual abuse, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, sexual identity and family issues. I welcome all individuals from all backgrounds.
My practice is built on a foundation of respect, understanding, and genuine care. Together, we will work towards building resilience, enhancing your wellbeing, and discovering the strength within you to overcome life's challenges.
If you are ready to take the first step towards a brighter, more balanced future, I invite you to get in touch. Let's work together to create the life you deserve.
You have a choice of where we work together:
- Face-to-face at the Wetmore Clinic near Ludlow, Shropshire
- Online - nationwide, UK
Would you like to find out more? I welcome you to get in touch and we can see if we're a good fit for one another!

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.
