About me
As a fully qualified integrative counsellor and a registered member of BACP, my approach combines various aspects of my training and experience. I take a holistic approach and tailor my methods to best meet your individual needs.
The focus of our sessions is not on me or my knowledge. Instead, I aim to establish a safe therapeutic relationship where empathy and trust flourish so you feel truly understood, heard and valued as the unique individual you are, with all that holds significance for you.
Whatever you choose to bring to our sessions – whether it's difficult thoughts, emotions or life experiences – we'll explore the origins of these feelings, how they impact you and your responses to them. You'll find me warm, compassionate and respectful of what you choose to share, whenever you choose to do so.
Sharing your experiences unlocks new possibilities and empowers you to make choices about how you want your life to be. We’ll think together about which choices are helpful, and which are not, and collaborate to bring the desired changes to fruition.
My career took an unexpected turn when I qualified as a clinical massage therapist. Witnessing how emotional, mental, and physical pain impacts different facets of an individual's life influenced my decision to become a counsellor. These valuable insights now inform and enrich my counselling practice.
Contemplating new ways of being can be daunting. However, effective talking therapy is a collaborative process, and I am here to support and guide you toward positive change.

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.
