About me
About Me and My Therapy Practice
I am a compassionate and experienced Counsellor, offering both long-term and short-term therapy tailored to address a wide range of issues. My approach is integrative, drawing from various therapeutic modalities to best support your unique needs.
Relationship counseling is my passion, as I believe that all counselling is, at its core, about relationships—whether with others or with ourselves. I work with both individuals and couples, providing a safe, supportive space where your voice is heard, and your experiences are valued. My goal is to foster personal growth, healing, and deeper understanding, helping you navigate challenges and build more fulfilling connections in your life.
From 24th March 2024, I will have a new counseling room, offering greater flexibility in appointment times to better accommodate your needs.
My First Session
I offer a free initial consultation, typically a 20-minute phone or Zoom call. This is an opportunity for me to share more about what counselling entails and for you to ask any questions you may have.
If you decide to proceed, we can schedule an initial session. This session lasts 50 minutes and is charged at the same rate as subsequent sessions. During this time, we will get to know each other and explore what working together feels like. It’s an opportunity for you to share what you’re seeking from counselling and to ask questions about my approach. At the end of this session, we can discuss the next steps and what feels most beneficial for your journey.

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.
