About me
Hello, I'm Fraser. I'm a friendly counsellor. If you need someone to talk to because life is getting a bit much, I'd be delighted to see you.
I'm equally at home talking face-to-face - I have a room in Falmouth - or over Zoom/Skype and on the phone.
You can bring anything that is troubling you. I offer person-centred therapy, which means you’re the expert in your own life. If there are problems, we can find the solutions together.
I have experience of dealing with some very difficult topics - from early sexual violence to suicidal thoughts, anxiety and depression and crisis management.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have a level 5 diploma in Person Centred Counselling and I’m a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
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.
