About me
I am a BACP Accredited Counsellor and have been working for many years with individuals with different problems. I am very passionate about counselling and believe in the importance of individuals getting the right psychological support in order that they can live a full and rewarding life.
There are many reasons why people come to see me including increased feelings of anxiety, depression, anger, feeling lonely or finding it difficult to cope, struggling with personal relationships with others, bereavement, questioning the meaning in life, past traumatic experiences and finding it difficult to adjust to changes in personal circumstances.
I am open and non-judgemental and can provide you with an environment to help you find the answers to your problems. I believe the therapeutic relationship that i offer can give you the confidence to talk openly about your problems in order that you may gain greater understanding and control of your situation.
During the pandemic, my services moved to an online format. This proved to be very convenient for clients who prefer no commute, carrying out sessions from their own space. If this is something that interests you, I am happy to accommodate.
I offer both short-term and long-term counselling. Sessions are provided face to face or remotely.
I am based in Shepperton, Middlesex and also cover the surrounding areas including Surrey and Hampshire.

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.

Further information
I have also been working in Brain injury for many years and have a vast experience of counselling individuals and their family members. My Occupational Therapy training has equipped me with an advanced knowledge and understanding of cognitive problems following brain injury, vital when working with this client population. My understanding of cognitive and awareness problems that can often present following brain injury allows me to tailor my therapy to suit the individual needs of all my clients.
