About me
Hello & Welcome. I am an experienced Bacp accredited Cognitive Behavioural Therapist (CBT) and Person-Centred Counsellor with over 10 years of experience working with adults in a variety of mental health settings including the NHS and private healthcare. I support clients experiencing a wide range of difficulties, including anxiety, stress, depression, social anxiety, health anxiety, phobias, relationship issues, chronic health conditions, OCD, and sleep problems.
I strive to promote a genuine, warm, and respectful relationship between client and therapist. Working collaboratively, I tailor my approach to the specific needs and objectives of each individual. My aim is to accompany you through challenging periods in your life by offering compassionate support and practical strategies. Together, we will build your confidence and strength, helping you reconnect with your own inner resourcefulness and find a pathway through your current difficulties. I very much look forward to hearing from you.

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.
