About me
Who I Am
I know first-hand that people look for counselling and psychotherapy when things in their lives are difficult. I myself have reached out for help when I have needed it, so I know not only how difficult life can be, but also the help, space and lifeline that counselling can give, both for me and my family.
What I Offer
My aim is to offer a space where problems can be worked through together. With children and young people, I offer not only this space for your child, but also for yourself as a parent / guardian.
I offer support, guidance, and consultation for the parent / guardian too as I find that, whilst the therapeutic support and space that I provide can give so much to the child or young person, offering such support can expand the awareness of what is needed for the child into the home too.
Important to Know
I am fully PVG checked for working with adults and children and am covered with full public liability insurance. I am an Accredited Member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy and adhere fully to its Code of Ethics.

Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
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.
Areas of counselling I deal with
Other areas of counselling I deal with
I offer sandtray therapy; a gentle approach which allows the client to explore their experiences without the need for words. Often considered to be suitable only for children, sandtray can in fact be a powerful yet fully person-centred approach to exploring our internal and external experiences.

Additional information
I offer an initial 20-minute meeting, free of charge, where we can meet and I can tell you a little more about what I offer.
I do believe that nobody should be denied help due to financial circumstances. As such I offer a moveable pay structure, with a minimum of £30 per session with my standard fee of £60 per session.
Couple sessions have a minimum of £40 per session, with a standard fee of £70 due to the differing nature of the work.
