About me
Making the first phone call can be the hardest step into your counselling journey. I aim to provide a safe and warm environment for you to explore the difficulties you are currently facing, whether it's issues at work, personal relationships, anxiety, depression or feelings of low confidence. I also work with people who are experiencing issues surrounding past trauma, this can be anything from the loss of a loved one, to experiences in your childhood.
Therapy can help you find a path through and long-lasting change in your life.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have personal experience of accessing counselling, and also professional qualifications in counselling - BSc Psychology, Psychotherapy and Counselling, MSc Counselling and Positive Psychology.
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.
