About me
Welcome to my profile!
My name is Grace and I am a person-centred counsellor, which means the focus of my work is about providing a safe, non-judgmental space for you to explore your current emotions and experiences. We will work together at your pace, so you can speak openly and freely within a confidential service.
I approach counselling sessions with a gentle and sensitive way of working.
I currently offer remote counselling sessions (telephone or online video chat).
Training, qualifications & experience
Here is a little bit about me:
I am a qualified person-centred counsellor, with over 10 years of experience and eight years of training in this field. My qualifications include an undergraduate degree (Counselling Skills with Psychology BA) and my postgraduate degree (Clinical Counselling MA). I additionally completed the BACP Certificate to Working Online, so I am fully trained on working remotely.
I have also completed a course in Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), which can support experiences such as chronic pain and work based stress using mindfulness and relaxation techniques.
I offer concessions for students/trainee counsellors. Please inquire for further information.
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.
