About me

A professionally qualified counsellor who adheres to the BACP ethical framework.

Experienced working with adolescents and adults and committed to providing a professional standard of service which ensures my client’s welfare is of primary concern. I offer short term or long term therapy, working with a range of issues including, depression, anxiety, bereavement, sexual orientation, gender identity and abuse. I understand that working collaboratively with my clients is key in allowing them to understand what they would like to achieve from therapy and which modality of counselling may best be suited for them. Ensuring we can work ethically towards understanding the most beneficial approach of therapy and enabling us to make the most out of our time together.

Grounded in the relational aspect of therapy, I offer a down to earth and accepting approach whilst drawing upon various modalities of counselling. Which include Person-Centred, Gestalt, Transactional Analysis (TA) and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). My fundamental aim is to provide a space where my clients can feel safe, understood and accepted whilst exploring ways to move through their distress or to understand and accept themselves more, leading to healing, change, growth and autonomy.

My personal interests as a therapist are in the power of awareness and acceptance. Particularly in consideration to the aspects of ourselves that we learn to deny, dislike and struggle to accept and the influence, this has on personal growth, self-esteem, psychological functioning and who we are in a relationship with our self and others. I believe that creating awareness, challenging and finding acceptance of these aspects of self allows people to move forward in ways which enables them to get the most out of themselves.

Training, qualifications & experience

I completed my training at the University of Chichester. Graduating with a BA(Hons) in Humanistic Counselling.

My experiences include working with adults and adolescents with a range of issues including, depression, anxiety, bereavement, sexual orientation, gender identity, abuse and managing emotions.

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.
