About me
Hello. I am a Gestalt Counsellor, I offer a warm, respectful and confidential space for you. Gestalt is a german word, a verb, that loosely translated means "Whole". In therapy your whole experience includes your emotions, body sensations and thought process. Gestalt therapy integrates mindfulness and encourages you to notice and pay attention to what arises in you.
A chance to take a breath and gain new insight and a fresh perspective on your situation. I am here to support you and help you take a step out of your comfort zone, to try something different and experiment, with potential for personal growth and new skills for living the life you want.
Therapeutically I am interested in attachment/separation issues, addiction, depression, sexuality, mental health and ADHD.
Typically working together every week on the same day!
I have openings in Charmouth on Mondays and Friday evening.. I currently have spaces for low cost therapy for £30 per session.
Training, qualifications & experience
Gestalt Diploma from the Gestalt Centre in London and have relocated to Dorset.
Volunteered at the Margaret Jackson Centre in Exeter. I have also work in a LGBT counselling service and in the care system with children, with challenging behaviour.
As well as counselling I am interested in meditation and yoga.
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.
