About me
Are you feeling lost or out of sorts?
Life can be hard and this is where counselling can play a pivotal role in turning your life around. No one should be dealing with issues alone. Standing beside you, developing a trusting relationship where you feel at ease and able to share in a place of safety without judgements or demands is an important starting point. People don’t need to be in crisis or at breaking point to have therapy. It is about empowerment for you to lead the life you want. The outcome being that you have a strong mental platform and resources to facilitate growth.
Within my practice, I use a client centred approach so together we can work on bringing a sense of balance and stability to your life. Traumatic events in life such as loss, stress, anxiety, low self - esteem, abuse, addiction, self - harm and issues within relationships can be looked into using talk therapy as well as EMDR – a form of therapy that looks at processing memories which may be negatively impacting your life.
Approaching counselling can be daunting so I want the shared space we occupy to be comforting so that you feel held and able to express yourself fully without fear so together we can explore where you are and where you want to be. I offer flexible appointments, whether face to face or remote. If you are struggling, please get in touch to create a new path. Looking forward to speaking soon.

The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society
This Not For Profit association of counsellors and psychotherapists aim to support the counselling profession, members and training organisations.
In 2013 the NCS register was accredited by the Professional Standards Authority under the Accredited Voluntary Register Scheme. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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.

Further information
I specialise in trauma related to past events which are impacting you now. I use EMDR (Eye movement desensitisation and reprocessing) which is a technique to process memories. Within all my work we work towards self awareness and developing skills which support you in regulating emotions being able to acknowledge your emotions but not allowing them to engulf you so you stay present. Providing you with resources so you can navigate what life brings to you.
