About me
After having my own counselling in 2017 I knew that counselling can transform lives and I wanted to be able to do that for others.
I offer online or in person sessions for Adults, Children and Young People and hope that you will find me the right fit for you as you start your counselling journey,
Training, qualifications & experience
Qualifying with a MSC in Counselling in Adult Counselling and a Diploma working with children and young people enables me to work with all sorts of people and this is a privilege.
I have experience in addition, anxiety , grief and Eating Disorders and I also am very lucky to work in schools working with children and young people to help them when they need that support.
I am able to see children from 5+ and work with them in the way they need
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.
