About me
We all go through times in life when we feel anxious or sad. This can relate to our relationships or the way we think and feel about ourselves. When we feel overwhelmed by these feelings or they don't seem to go away it can help to talk to someone outside of our normal family or friendship group.
I am a BACP registered counsellor working with students and younger adults. I provide a safe, confidential space to explore your feelings and make sense of what is going on in your life.
I am a qualified integrative counsellor. This means I combine theories from a number of different approaches to counselling such as; Person-centered, Psychodynamic, and Gestalt. I don’t believe that there is a single approach that will work for all individuals in all situations. The therapy will evolve with the approach and pace that feels right for you.
I offer both short and long-term counselling. The sessions will take place at The Practice Rooms in Southville and Clifton.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have experience of working with a wide range of issues such as; low self-esteem, relationships, anxiety, depression, grief, and loss.
Over the past 13 years, I have worked and volunteered in various mental health, addiction and young persons services. I previously, managed a local mental health charity and provided training and supervision to individuals, groups and workplaces.
I am a BACP Registered Counsellor and therefore abide by their code of ethics and conduct. I undertake regular professional development and supervision.

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.
