About me
I am a qualified therapist and coach who is passionate about helping people work through issues so that they can emerge stronger and happier.
Sometimes we just need someone impartial and compassionate to just listen to us confidentially and not judge us. To help us express and let go of our feelings and thoughts in a safe space.
Other times we need help to make sense of past events or to manage difficult emotions and then we need to move forward… so having someone to support, challenge and motivate us can be really useful as we step out of our comfort zone or build better habits.
Working with someone who blends therapy with coaching means that you not only become more aware of how past or present events are affecting you, but when you are ready, I can also help you to move forwards with greater feelings of empowerment, improved self-esteem and a new-found confidence.
These lasting changes will allow you to enjoy healthier lifestyles, forge better relationships and give you the courage to embrace new opportunities.
Don't suffer in silence. You don't need to go through things on your own.

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.
