About me
At times do you feel overwhelmed by what life throws at you? Is stress making you unable to make decisions? Are you a person who rebukes themselves for making a wrong decision? Have you noticed that patterns in your life are continually repeating themselves? By becoming aware of these cycles of repetition can lead you to being empowered in your life, taking away the fear of being embarrassed or shamed. I can help help you look at making changes and find a way that is customised to support and establish a way forward for you.
In our lives we may find that we are self-justifying ourselves from criticism, being afraid of being alone, hurt or your partner swamping you as a person. By learning how to conquer your fears can lead to growth and begin to enjoy life again.

I was previously an IT teacher within a secure environment working with people with disaffected backgrounds. This I believe has helped me to develop skills that I now use in my counselling work. I work with a non judgement way allowing for my client and I to build a good working relationship that is safe place for them to talk openly.
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.
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.

Further information
I have a vast amount of experience of working with people who have anxiety, depression, abuse and low self esteem. In life we suffer different kinds of bereavement, not just the loss of a loved one, we may grieve for the loss of a life style, mobility, children moving away from home or even a job. I aim to build a relationship of trust and for you to find your own unique voice that allows you to be valued and to grow.
