About me
Seeking counselling can be a daunting process, but seeing as you’re reading this information, you’ve taken the first step towards achieving your goal.
Choosing a counsellor is the beginning of your journey to a more confident and more resilient you.
You’re braver than you believe!
Stronger than you seem!
And smarter than you think!
And my aim as your counsellor, will be to make you believe this.
I understand how life can become difficult at times, life can throw us some difficult and traumatic situations. But if you choose my friendly counselling service, we can talk through and help you to process your thoughts and feelings.
Processing what has happened in the past, with me by your side, I truly believe that everyone has the potential to change and grow. We will be working towards a brighter and more positive future.
I am a friendly and down to earth, experienced counsellor. I work in the heart of Grantham town. My room is private and quiet. I pride myself on creating a warm, safe environment for you to explore issues that are holding you back in life. We can release the break and discover what you want your future to look like. We can explore past issues that have caused distress, and through this exploration, you will find the issues less traumatic. Clearing the way to leave them in the past and move on.
I work with adults and young people, offering a humanistic person-centered counselling. This means you are in control. My aim is not to guide you to do things my way, but to work out your own unique ways. Sometimes your own views and feelings have been over looked, but my aim is to help you discover yourself. I work a lot with helping my clients gain self-worth, helping my clients understand they are valued and understanding loving yourself is so important in having a happy life.

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.
