About me
I am a neurodivergent therapist who is trained in Transactional Analysis. I am also a Certified Imago Relationship Therapist.
I can work with individuals, or any two individuals who want to improve their communication, e.g. pre-marital counselling, couples in long-term relationships, a parent and an adult child, two friends or colleagues.
The majority of my work involves people who have experienced childhood trauma, and who often struggle with anxiety, anger and or depression.
I'm particularly interested in transgenerational trauma - the idea that trauma can be transmitted across generations, and its effects expressed through descendants. This thinking informs my work, as sometimes, the pain that we express, doesn't belong solely to us; where this is the case, it can be liberating to notice and to realise that certain struggles can be left in the past.
I have a collaborative approach, allowing us to co-create an environment in which you feel safe, able to heal and grow.

Member organisations
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.

This Not For Profit association of counsellors and psychotherapists aim to support the counselling profession, members and training organisations.
