About me
I am an experienced Person Centred Counsellor and have been working in private practice for over ten years. I have a broad life experience, with a background in art and music, which helps me to have good rapport with people from many different walks of life. I believe it is in the relationship that we form that makes therapy effective.
I specialize in working with anxiety, depression and low self-esteem. If you are experiencing any of these issues, I can help you gain new perspectives and tools to over come anxiety and depression and to boost your self esteem.
Perhaps you feel you have lost direction and would like to find your way. Maybe you are struggling in your relationships or with your work and want to improve these areas of your life. You may be bereaved and want support or you may be struggling with addiction and want to address this. Whatever you are experiencing and wherever you find yourself in life, together we will work on any issues that you bring.
With counselling, you will find that you can see yourself and your life more clearly. This will allow you to live freely and to make good life choices. I can help you live up to your potential and to live a fulfilling and enjoyable life.
Do get in touch for an initial complimentary consultation (20 mins). In this first meeting we can get to know each other and see if we are a good match to continue working together. We will then agree on a regular time to meet online on a weekly basis.
I recommend attending sessions for a minimum of six months to really benefit from Counselling. Although it is entirely up to you how long you would like to attend, perhaps taking more time for longer term issues.
I am a member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and adhere to their Ethics and Code of good practice (2023).

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.
