About me
Hello and welcome to all of you who are taking the courageous step to find a therapist to help you. My clients have often commented on how relaxed and empowered they feel when working with me. This enables the exploration of feelings, behaviour and thought processes to help clients overcome their concerns and issues.
I work in partnership with my clients, in a collaborative manner to help them to get the very best out of their therapy. My work ethos is that successful counselling comes from a safe and trusting relationship guided by professional principles. Your self-care starts here. You have nothing to lose by contacting me because I believe you are worth investing in.
Are you having difficult or toxic relationships and would like to make positive changes and develop healthier relationships? Is your anxiety impacting your life? I can help you to find coping mechanisms so you can live your life to the full. Would you like to have a deeper understanding of past trauma and learn how to reconcile your past? Have recent life events left you feeling low or unable to cope? I can offer you the support you need to get your life back on track.

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.
