About me
I am an empathic and caring individual whose aim is to empower people to be the best version of themselves. I am a qualified Counsellor in Person Centred Therapy, ensuring I build a non-judgmental foundation in which a therapeutic relationship can form, enabling clients to feel safe, secure and listened to. The priority is YOU and supporting you to finding solutions, meeting your needs and focusing on what is important to you. Everyone has their own unique journey, which can be explored in the correct environment to enable change to take place.

My experience of supporting children and adults during my varied career has spanned over 25 years from my post of a Primary School Teacher to working in a Residential Children's home, to fostering young people within my home. I have a passion and commitment to improve the lives of adults and children through offering my support to meet their needs. With the correct skills, environment and reassurance, effective healing and growth, will take place. I am experienced with both young people and adults ensuring that each individual will have their own journey of change.
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.
