About me

I am an experienced Integrative counsellor and supervisor. I have worked in several organisations in London and Sussex and work in private practice on-line.  I love working with people and my aim is to help you overcome any difficulties you may be experiencing that might get in the way of you living up to your full potential. I think it is in the relationship that we form that makes therapy effective. I have a broad life experience that I bring to my work and which helps me have good rapport with people from all walks of life.

I specialize in and have good results working with anxiety, depression and low self-esteem.You may be feeling sad, stressed, fearful or angry, or you could be experiencing loss or grief.  Perhaps you want to identify changes you would like to make and we can look at how you go about making those changes. Together we will work on any issues you bring, if you would like to work on long term issues or to address a current crisis. You will find new perspectives that can help you see yourself and your life more clearly.  This will allow you to live more freely and make satisfactory life choices.  Together we will work through issues that are important to you and we will always work at your own pace.

Contact me for an initial consultation (20-30mins) at no charge. This will give us an opportunity to get to know each other and to decide if we would like to continue working together. We can then agree on a time to meet on a weekly basis. The amount of time you would like to take up therapy is up to you. You may have a set amount of time in mind or prefer to keep it open ended.

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
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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

British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
Accredited Register Scheme

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.
