About me
The modern world can be a very daunting and stressful place with many challenges from family, friends, work and society. Psychotherapy provides the opportunity for people to explore issues, understand them and work towards a resolution in a holding, nurturing and non-judgemental environment.
Sessions available face-to-face or online via Zoom.
I have been a practicing psychotherapist for a number of years and through this time have developed an effective approach that combines counselling techniques to develop coping mechanisms and improves short term symptoms coupled with a more in-depth psychotherapy approach that looks at the underlying cause. This dual process approach creates short term gains for the client, positive momentum in their chosen direction and ultimately a greater understanding of the underlying issues that have contributed towards the issue. I see therapy as a joint journey between client and therapist and whilst I have considerable theoretical and practical training to refer to I am conscious that the process is highly individual, as such my aim is to empower the individual.
I am a registered Member of the BACP and follow their ethical guidelines with regular supervision. I completed additional training upgrading my skills to a full Honours Degree and I have been a volunteer psychotherapist with exposure to a wide variety of relational issues that include working with over 16’s, substance abuse, relationship and general mental well-being issues with approx. 2,000 hours of client work.
My background is a successful 25+ year career in engineering management and social care with a reputation for building successful and highly motivated teams.

Member organisations
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.
