About me

I am qualified as an integrative counsellor and work using this as a theoretical foundation, although have grown to incorporate different aspects of spirituality, creativity, and exploration through different forms.

Throughout the process of therapy we will work together to unravel and make connection with all aspects of the self and beyond– mind, body, spirit and emotion. This can be a challenging yet rewarding process as you get to know yourself at a core level.

We hold such wisdom inside ourselves. Often we are not aware of this until we begin the journey of unravelling in a safe space.

A session will be very much led by your needs. Areas that I specialise in are the areas that I have lived experience in. These include trauma, areas concerning self worth and self esteem, anxiety, addiction, relationships to self and others, and self harm.

We will work together on this journey and go at a pace that you are comfortable with. All that you are feeling is welcome. There will be no judgement or ‘fixing’. A session may involve talking but can also incorporate writing, drawing, using sound and movement, a space in nature, meditation, shamanic healing, or using different objects possibly from nature or something that you bring along.

I work with clients in a variety of ways, gently guiding and holding space for depth and process. Spirituality is a thread that flows through my work. I am able to help you to understand your emotions, what is beneath them, what are they telling you, and how they are manifesting. Often we feel physical pain or sensations, or behave in sabotaging ways or have habits or destructive patterns that we are not quite sure where they come from until we begin to look at them within a therapeutic space.

Please get in touch if you would like to speak further. I work in Crediton and Exeter and can sometimes come to your home depending on availability.

I can also sometimes offer reduced rates subject to your situation.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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.
