About me
I believe that we all have the ability to grow and expand from the foundations of what we have learnt. We're valuable and have so much potential but it's totally normal to find ourselves questioning who we are. Many of us experience feelings of anxiety, depression and feeling sad and reaching out for support takes real strength. I offer a safe relationship to talk through the troubles of everyday life as well as major life events that have rocked your sense of self. We will work with what you bring as you are the expert on yourself and everything is relevant and necessary to personal growth.
We can work together to explore your early experiences and how you manage these in your present world. These early experiences can echo into our adult life whether you are aware of them or not. I will work alongside you to bring about awareness and allow space for exploration on how this has effected your life up until this point. By allowing insight into these current behaviours, by not judging them will allow change.
I have experience of working in many areas and all of them resonate around trauma. This is with all of us from early life trauma to everyday trauma that we may not be as aware of. I have experience of working with eating disorders, self harm, OCD, domestic abuse and pregnancy related issues with both adults and young people.
I have been a Counsellor at Footsteps Counselling and Care for 7 years who offer support to families experiencing perinatal issues. Alongside my Counselling practice I am a Doula offering support around pregnancy loss (including abortion) and antenatal, birth and postpartum support.
I work from Nailsworth where I offer sessions in person, over Zoom or walking through the nearby woods and on Minchinhampton common. I am a qualified counsellor in therapeutic counselling and a member of the BACP and NCS.

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.
