About me
I’m an experienced counsellor, and my work centres on building a supportive relationship where you can explore what feels important and move toward lasting change. My approach is grounded in person‑centred counselling, and I draw on other ways of working when they feel helpful for you and the direction of our sessions.
I have experience supporting adults who’ve lived through childhood trauma, sexual violence, low self‑esteem, anxiety and depression. Within my work, I offer a calm, compassionate space to help you navigate life’s ups and downs. Together we can explore difficult thoughts or emotions at a pace that feels right for you, creating room for clarity and growth.
Training, qualifications & experience
My experience includes supporting adults who’ve lived through childhood trauma, sexual violence, loss and domestic abuse. Trauma can show up in many different ways, so our sessions may also explore relationship difficulties, anxiety, low mood, self‑harm or concerns around body image. This shapes the steady, relational way I work and the care I bring to each session.
I hold an enhanced DBS and I’m a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, which means I work to recognised professional standards. I’m trained to BSc (Hons) level in Counselling and Psychotherapy, with a foundation in person‑centred counselling and further training in counselling skills.
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).
