About me
"We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them” – Albert Einstein
Hello, I’m Krissy. I'm an integrative therapist trained to a degree level in Counselling and Psychotherapy - Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT).
My approach is solution focused; I want to help you explore the deeper meanings behind your worries and find a solution to overcome what’s holding you back from reaching your full potential.
The CBT model explores the link between your thoughts, feelings and behaviours. We work together to establish what limiting beliefs may be causing you distress and use appropriate methods to challenge these.
I have experience working with a wide variety of adults and young people. I have worked in Mental Health within the charitable and public sectors, helping a large amount of people along the way.
I have worked with many issues with varying degrees of severity, including but not limited to; Anxiety, depression, OCD, phobias, dissociative disorder, personality disorders, schizophrenia, psychosis, mood disorders, trauma, PTSD, CPTSD, abuse, self-esteem issues, eating disorders, grief and loss, relationship issues, stress and work related stress, paranoia, intrusive thoughts, suicidal ideation and crisis, substance misuse, self-harm, anger and neurodiversity challenges.

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.
