About me

I work with adolescents and adults in an integrative way, drawing from different theories of counselling to allow me to tailor the therapy to best meet your individual needs. This can be short or long-term, depending on the complexity of the issue you presents with.

I provide a safe space for you to work through your issues in a non-judgemental and confidential environment. Sometimes the thought of counselling can be scary for many but to be able to talk freely in a neutral environment where you feel heard and understood can be very empowering.

My aim is to work with you to achieve your full potential and to live a fuller life.  So if you are suffering from anxiety, depression, low self esteem, relationship issues etc., (please see list below) don't hesitate to get in touch

NCPS
National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society (NCPS)

The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society

This Not For Profit association of counsellors and psychotherapists aim to support the counselling profession, members and training organisations.

In 2013 the NCS register was accredited by the Professional Standards Authority under the Accredited Voluntary Register Scheme. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.

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.
