About me
Hello, thank you for viewing my profile. As a BACP accredited counsellor with over 16 years experience I support people through depression, anxiety, addiction, trauma, abuse and loss amongst many other issues. Having a confidential space to talk can start you on the path to making positive changes.
Each person's journey differs so I aim to explore it with you, adapting my skills to fit your needs. I believe each of us has the ability to enhance our lives, sometimes we just need a little help along the way.
Taking that first step to meet a counsellor requires courage; I understand this and aim to make it as easy as possible.
I would like to invite you to contact me for an informal chat where you can decide if I'm the right person for you. Counselling is a personal experience so it's important to feel comfortable with your chosen therapist. If your situation does not fit into the categories listed above please do not let that deter you. My door is always open and I look forward to working with you.

In addition to my private practice, my professional background consists of over 5 years counselling in a drug and alcohol rehabilitation centre, 9 years counselling staff and students in a busy sixth form college, voluntary counselling at a women's refuge and Bolton Beacon Counselling Service, plus using play therapy within schools. I am also a qualified supervisor.

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.
