About me

I am trained in humanistic counselling and psychotherapy and am a member of BACP. I work with individuals in Brighton and Hove, as well as online.

In our sessions, we develop a therapeutic relationship through which we can explore any issues or concerns you might have, reflecting on your lived experience. Together, we work to create new meaning in your life that serves you.

I believe that to learn, grow and develop, we must also be open to challenge alongside validation. My role is then to hold a confidential, non-judgemental space with empathy and compassion for whatever might arise.

Whilst I am rooted in humanistic practice and philosophy, I draw on influences from other writers, including those from the psychoanalytic and psychodynamic traditions, as well as ideas from systems theory.

I work with people on an open-ended basis. Please contact me to arrange an initial session or an introductory phonecall.

Training, qualifications & experience

I hold a Postgraduate Diploma in Humanistic Counselling & Psychotherapy (Distinction) and am working towards an MSc in Psychotherapy, both at the University of Brighton.

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.
