About me
I work to help you feel better able to manage your situation. My aim is to help you feel ready to meet life head-on. Ultimately I want you to change, grow and thrive. I believe it's the relationship that heals so I work to provide a relationship which can form a bridge from where you are, to the person you would like to be in the future.
I am an integrative therapist making use of Gestalt, Person Centred, Psychodynamic and Jungian Archetypal perspectives.
I work across genders but am especially experienced with mens work. Knowing that therapy is often experienced negatively by men. I bridge the gap by bringing a language that can aid understanding and self-acceptance.

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.
