About me
Hello, I'm James, a really friendly qualified and accredited Counsellor born and raised in Yorkshire.
I offer you the space to work at your own pace, to truly hear what it is that you are saying, to be someone who walks alongside you, gently checking meaning and guiding you to your own revelations, learning and understanding. I believe that figuring things out this way is the most empowering and lasting way to remove your roadblocks. In a sense, you already hold the answers… we just need to figure them out together.
And so it is my hope that we can build and share in a therapeutic relationship that offers us the opportunity to not only work with your challenges, but also celebrate your victories. Both tears and smiles are welcome here.
I selected my approach to Counselling for being rooted in the Humanistic traditions - heart-led human values, with a leaning towards asking "why", and exploring a deeper understanding of ourselves. What I bring to our Counselling sessions together is what I believe and trust in for myself.
I’m hugely passionate about providing 1:1 empathic space and hold a Distinction in Integrative Counselling & Psychotherapy. The very best of myself is what I give to Counselling and the very best of myself is what I offer to you.
As human beings, none of us are identical, and we all have a unique and beautiful story to tell... or to discover. Whether you choose to work with me online or in person, I offer a cosy, welcoming, friendly space that is free of judgement for us to gently explore what’s holding you back or keeping you down.
Above all, I believe in YOU!
With warmth,
James

Training, qualifications & experience
Distinction in Integrative Counselling & Psychotherapy FdA
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.
The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society This Not For Profit association of counsellors and psychotherapists aim to support the counselling profession, members and training organisations. In 2013 the NCS register was accredited by the Professional Standards Authority under the Accredited Voluntary Register Scheme. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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.
