About me
About Me:
I am a qualified Counsellor and Supervisor, registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and an Accredited Member of the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society (NCPS). Fully insured and committed to ethical practice, I provide a safe, supportive space for clients and supervisees to explore challenges and achieve meaningful change.
My experience as a counsellor is wonderfully varied. I work with adults aged 18 and over, supporting them in any area of life where they wish to make sustainable changes, gain a deeper understanding of themselves, and use that insight to move forward positively.
Areas I Work With:
✔ Anxiety and depression
✔ Stress and work-related challenges
✔ Self-esteem and confidence
✔ Domestic and sexual abuse
✔ Trauma and recovery
Additional Services:
- Home visits for those who are housebound, experiencing ill-health, disability, or mobility issues
- Flexible appointment times to suit your need.

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.

I offer a free 15 minute initial consultation via telephone or video link to establish whether I can help you and to help you decide whether I am the right therapist for you.
During this call, we will discuss what has brought you to therapy, aspects of your wider lifestyle and relationships, the support you feel you need, and your preferred time and frequency of therapy. You also have the opportunity to ask any questions about me or the service I offer.
There is no obligation to start therapy with me but if we do both feel that we would work well together and our diaries match up, we can arrange our first session together.

Further information
My private practice is at my home, walking down my driveway (gate open) towards the bottom gate, ring the bell and I will come let you through.
Upon entrance, there is hand sanitiser on the table if needed.
Unfortunately, there is no waiting room, although I am pretty good at allowing space between clients, please try to arrive within 5 minutes of your session time.
There is plenty of street parking.
