About me

Hello, I'm Francis, a BACP-registered Humanistic Integrative counsellor with over ten years' experience supporting people with their mental health and wellbeing.

I believe therapy should never be one-size-fits-all. Every person brings a unique story, so I adapt my approach to your needs, drawing on person-centred, psychodynamic and other humanistic perspectives to create a way of working that feels right for you.

My aim is to build a genuine therapeutic relationship where you feel able to speak openly, without fear of judgement or pressure to be anyone other than yourself. Whether you're experiencing anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, loss, or simply feeling stuck, therapy can offer a space to understand what's happening, make sense of your experiences and move towards lasting change.

Alongside my private practice, I have spent more than a decade working in mental health and wellbeing, including five years managing a counselling service for young people entering the creative industries. This has given me extensive experience supporting people through periods of transition, uncertainty and emotional distress.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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.
