About me
As a person-centred integrative counsellor my work is led by you and your needs. I will work alongside you without judgement, focusing on the issues important to you.
Counselling and Psychotherapy can be useful for many people for a multitude of reasons. I have worked with people experiencing loss or bereavement, work difficulties, relationship changes or problems, low self-esteem and depression among other reasons. My aim remains the same, to provide a safe and comfortable space for you to explore what it is, that would be helpful for you. The goal is to enhance your wellbeing and assist you to reflect and make any changes you want to. I am driven to help you overcome thoughts and feelings that are disempowering and work with you to be motivated to make changes at a deep level.
Integrating counselling techniques allows me to tailor your counselling experience to you. I can gently guide and support you towards your goals and assist you to develop a greater understanding of yourself.

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.
