About me
Money. Sex. Power. Death. Relationships. Anxiety. Religion. God. Depression. Abuse. Feeling different to everyone else.
I am here to help you navigate life's difficult experiences. To carry on with renewed hope or to redraw your map entirely. And all in a safe and confidential therapeutic relationship. We all need a space where we can say out loud the things we are thinking. Sometimes we just need to be silent and know we are understood. Other times we may need to rage against the pain and injustice we have tasted.
I am an integrative Person Centred Counsellor, believing that your needs are at the heart of my practice. At the heart of everything I do is a passionate, evidence based commitment, to build a strong therapeutic relationship with my clients. This relationship is founded on deep empathy, my authentic openness and unconditional acceptance for who you are.
Therapy is powerful. There have been dark times in my life when being with an empathetic therapist has made all the difference. It is a relationship that can transform the way we live.
As we open up and trust a professional therapist with our greatest difficulties, it is my experience that something wonderful can happen. In our words and silence, we hear ourselves in a new way. Sometimes for the first time. And the healing begins to flow as we understand our pain and find new directions for our lives.

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.
