About me
I am a fully insured and registered MBACP Integrative Therapist, Couples Counsellor, Supervisor and End Of Life Doula in training.
- As an Integrative Therapist, I work with 18+ individuals and couples using a variety of different counselling models and methodologies. Although I would broadly describe myself as a Person-Centred Therapist, my working methods are entirely client-led and not dictated by any personal preference in terms of therapeutic model.
- I pride myself on my honest, non-judgmental approach, my empathy and my ability to make genuine, authentic connection with my clients. I strongly believe that the success of any course of therapy lies in the depth of the therapeutic relationship. For this reason, listening to and fully understanding who you truly are is of paramount importance to me.
- I do not view you as someone with a problem that needs to be fixed and myself as the fixer. I do not believe anyone needs to be 'fixed', so will not offer you solutions, advice, unsolicited opinions or my personal judgements of what I consider to be 'good' or 'bad'. Instead I will work with humour, curiosity, warmth and creativity with you through self-discovery towards self-acceptance.
I currently offer one-on-one and in-person sessions from my office in central Exeter, as well as via Zoom. Please feel free to give me a call or drop me an email to ask me about any aspect of my work.

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.

End Of Life Doulas (or 'Death Doulas') are trained to support people at the end of their life and to walk alongside individuals, their family and their community as an informed companion. As such I am have a particular interest in working with people facing a diagnosis of terminal illness, as well as their families.
