About me
I am able to offer you Person-centred counselling which is based on a simple but powerful idea. It is not about telling you what to do or analysing you. It is about creating a safe, supportive space where you can talk openly and explore your thoughts and feelings.
Through empathy, genuine understanding, and non-judgement, I endeavour to help you reconnect with your own inner wisdom.
There are no instructions, no pressure, and no “fixing.” Just space to be heard, understood, and accepted exactly as you are.
Because when people feel truly heard, they often discover their own path forward.
Healing doesn’t come from someone having the answers.
It comes from being supported while you find your own.

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.

Working Online
Online counselling therapy is a way for you to engage in counselling using your laptop or phone. I offer a safe and secure environment for your confidential online therapy.
I use Zoom which allows us to have face-to-face counselling appointments. I will send you logon details for a time that we have previously arranged for our 50 minute sessions. Being able to see me gives you more of the benefits you get from face-to-face counselling, but with the convenience of online therapy.
