About me
I am offering Cognitive behavioural therapy (cbt) at a discounted rate of £40.00 per session for 6 sessions. CBT can be really helpful if you are experiencing anxiety, phobia or ocd, for example.
Wanting to change how your life is really tough. Making the first step is a difficult decision but it might be the most important one. As a counsellor I am here to provide a space for you to explore your world at your pace and then help you to take the steps needed to make changes. Sometimes what helps is that someone hears you. And I offer that space, a quiet confidential and safe space to find yourself and find out what you need to create a life you would like.
I can support you if you are feeling overwhelmed, anxious or depressed. I can support you through loss or help you to find a way through challenges such as menopause or retirement. If you would like to find a place to gain trust, and get to know yourself, please get in touch.
Some areas I can help with
depression
generalised anxiety disorder
anxiety
loss and bereavement
ADHD
loss of confidence and low self esteem

….and more besides, please call for a chat to find out.
I work with young people 18+, adults and older adults. If you are in a residential setting, I can come out to visit you there provided there can be a confidential space to meet.
Whether you are facing a specific worry in your life or are seeking greater awareness of yourself, please get in touch.

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.
