About me
"You came into my life when I couldn’t see a future and made me realise how important I am. You have saved my life and made it worth living and I cannot thank you enough.”
My approach to therapy is one that is holistic and shaped to support your individual needs. I am Person-Centred, and integrate CBT, DBT, mindfulness and emotion focused techniques into the work that we do together. I am a qualified yoga teacher and can also explore it's therapeutic benefits in therapy through specific somatic experiencing.
I work as a DBT therapist at The Priory and have previously worked with both inpatient and outpatient adults and adolescents. I have also led therapeutic yoga and mindfulness groups. My main area of specialism is working with emotion dysregulation.
Other areas of interest include: Working with people who have experienced trauma through toxic relationships, emotional/psychological/narcissistic/domestic abuse, traumatic invalidation, attachment issues, relationship conflict, addictive behaviours.
My broad experience allows me to work with a variety of presenting conditions. However, the uniqueness of you as an individual is what will be the main focus of our work together. I believe we all have the ability within us to find the answers we need, to heal and grow towards our full potential. Nobody understands how we think and feel better than ourselves.
"Jade was absolutely brilliant. She gave me room to talk and also made many useful suggestions on how to overcome any future bouts of anxiety and depression. Not sure if there was anything that could have been done better! "
PLEASE NOTE: I get a lot of enquiries regarding DBT. This evidence based psychotherapy is most effective with a combination of weekly skills groups and 1:1s. If you have an questions or would like to chat more about this I can offer a free 15 minute consultation.
Online therapy options available to those who prefer this method of communication for therapy. Choose from telephone, Zoom or Microsoft Teams.

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.
