About me
There may be many reasons why you find yourself here.
Is something no longer working for you and you don’t know how to talk about it let alone how to work through it?
I am an Integrative Counsellor by training, which means I can draw on a range of humanistic, psychodynamic and cognitive theories and tailor these to your unique needs.
I work with adults - Face to face from Taunton or Bridgwater in person or online.
I offer a trauma informed approach and space to unpack whatever it is you are sitting with: the challenges of life and relationships, family issues, low self esteem, concerns about your mental health, burn out, addiction, grief, anxiety, depression, specific trauma or noticing repeating patterns in life that are no longer working for you. Lets explore and make sense of them in a meaningful way to you.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a qualified and fully insured therapist and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
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.
