About me

Life is not easy, and if you are reading this you have probably figured out that you want to talk. Talking and being truly heard will increase your self-awareness and help you to understand what is going on for you, I offer a genuine, warm, and confidential environment, where you can explore your situation, in a way that feels comfortable & safe for you.

I am a fully qualified counsellor and a member of The British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy(BACP). I am insured, registered with the ICO and GDPR compliant ensuring your data is protected. I have years of experience working with children, young people, and adults.

I love being invited to share one's journey, it is an honour, to participate and provide a space that allows the client to explore and feel safe, it makes me happy and I enjoy seeing the client walk out feeling free and ready to enjoy life. I offer a genuine, warm, and confidential space, in which I allow the client to lead, and my essence in the session offers a relationship that is open to exploring.

We can explore your anxiety, feelings, thoughts and the decisions that you make in your life, and how they affect you and your relationships. We can also work to improve your capacity for self-reflection, self-understanding, self-love, self-care, and communication with others. Improving confidence and self-esteem.

I offer support to couples through the Prepare-Enrich program. This can help couples to prepare for marriage, enrich their relationship, or review and improve their co-parenting by taking stock of their strengths and growth areas.

I am trainee psychotherapist, who is specialised in working with Trauma, if you have symptoms or have been diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress disorder or complex Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and would like to work in systematic way to treat your symptoms of panic attack's, nightmares or flashbacks and feelings of isolation, irritable, guilt, and fear, then please call or email.

The initial session is a telephone consultation. This will allow both of us to explore whether a relationship can be established and how and when we can work together.

Member organisations

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.

Key details

Wheelchair user access
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.
