About me
Welcome to my page, I invite you to take your time in getting to know me as it's important you choose the right therapist for you.
Looking for a therapist can be overwhelming as there are many counsellors working in varied ways, how can you find out what's right for you? I hope the next section gives you an idea of how I work and what I feel is important for my clients.
-------------------------------------------------------
My experience as a Humanistic Counsellor allows me to support adults (18+) during distressing times. When you are grieving, anxious, or feeling lonely, talking to a safe and trusted counsellor can be a powerful and healing experience.
Our relationship is the most important thing in our work.
I can't be an expert in everything, no one can, but I have the skills and experience in helping my clients work out what's best for them. What are your unique feelings and emotions around the problem you bring and how you are dealing with it (or not)?
We could unpack and examine where you are.
You might just want me to listen to you.
You possibly might like me to challenge you.
You may decide you do not want to go there at all.
It's up to you it's your space and time with me.
I am interested and have experience in family dynamics, relationship issues, drug use and abuse, feeling stuck, having low mood, anger, shame and loss. I have been around the block a few times in my life and I feel I can bring all of that experience and learning alongside me when we meet. I like to work with metaphors in a creative way to explore issues.
To our therapeutic relationship, I promise to bring empathy, honesty and respect, whilst you provide expertise in the one thing that really matters in all this … you.

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.
