About me
After my own very positive experience of being counselled I decided that I wanted to offer the same opportunity to others. I soon realised that the person - centred approach was the right fit for me.
As a person - centred therapist I believe that everyone has the capacity within themselves , given the right conditions, to survive and grow emotionally in whatever situation they face . I want to offer you support and the opportunity to feel heard and understood so that you can re-connect with your inner resources. Together we can creatively explore solutions to whatever is troubling you.
I offer short, long term or time limited therapy.
As a person -centred therapist I am very experienced in working with a wide range of issues. I am particularly interested in the subject of loss. Whether loss of opportunity or bereavement I am struck by its impact on most areas of our lives.
Maybe an initial appointment with me will enable you to decide whether I am someone that you would like to work with.
I am offering 60 minute online or telephone appointments.

Member organisations
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
BACP is one of the UK’s largest professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy. Therapists registered with the Association fall into a number of different membership categories such as Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP and Registered Member MBACP (Accred), each standing for different levels of training and experience. MBACP (Accred) and MBACP (Snr Accred) members have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by the Association.
Registered members can be found on the BACP Register, which was the first register to achieve Accredited Voluntary Register status issued by the Professional Standards Authority. Individual Members will have completed an appropriate counselling and/or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but will not appear on the BACP Register until they've progressed to Registered Member MBACP status.
All members are bound by a Code of Ethics & Practice and a Complaints Procedure. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.

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).
