About me
Hello, if you are facing problems that are affecting you day to day we can build a trusting working relationship between us to help overcome these difficulties.
I offer a flexible style of counselling that will adapt to a variety of issues and the number of sessions that you may require to change your life for the better. I particularly specialise in adults experiencing anxiety and depression though welcome anyone to bring whatever they are struggling with to my friendly practice in Fareham where we can make the healing journey together.
I understand that life can be stressful and that you need someone completely non-judgmental to talk to to help you get through these challenging times. I can help you with this and you will receive a warm reception in a safe environment where privacy and confidentiality is absolutely paramount.
Please call, text or email me to arrange a free, no obligation 20 minute initial consultation for us to get to know each other and to help you decide whether to move on to paid sessions.
Training, qualifications & experience
My initial training was in the psychodynamic modality which is generally long term and open ended. I worked in this model as a volunteer for three years at a charity based in Chichester. I am also fully trained in time limited therapy and have had considerable experience particularly working with students at Portsmouth University. I now offer an integrative style of counselling that can be adapted to suit most people's issues and the number of sessions they require.
Qualifications
Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling for individual adults MBACP.
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.
