About me
Life doesn’t have to be this way. Whatever is going on for you that has led you to consider counselling, I believe that there is a way for things to be different. I hope that the space I offer in therapy would allow you to find that.
Maybe you’re not the person you want to be at the moment……things feel harder to do or make you feel anxious. Maybe you’re snappy or irritable or withdrawn with the people in your life but can’t make sense of it or find a way to change that pattern. Therapy can help.
Often when we’re finding life hard we think we ‘just need to get on with it’ or judge ourselves for finding things hard as ‘others have it much worse than me’. It’s so understandable to feel this way but it leaves us stuck in a loop where things don’t get any better. There is a way for things to be different and whatever you bring is worthy of help.
My clients have come to counselling seeking support with many different issues. Get in touch and we can have a free initial chat to see if counselling might help you.

Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
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.
