About me

"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! "

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 the therapeutic benefits of this practice in therapy. 

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. 

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.

Online therapy options available to those who prefer this method of communication for therapy. Choose from telephone, Zoom or Microsoft Teams.

Member organisations

Registered / Accredited

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
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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

Wheelchair user access
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.
