About me

Sometimes life can throw difficulties our way and it can jolt us, shake us even, leaving us feeling lost and disconnected. Counselling can help us to reconnect to ourselves by exploring our narratives, gaining a deeper understanding of who we are, and to develop a better relationship with ourselves and others. I would like to offer you a confidential space to do this at your own pace and without judgement.

I am a qualified integrative counsellor based in East London, and I work with a range of issues including depression, anxiety, low self-confidence, low self-esteem, relationship issues, loss and trauma. 

I am a registered member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy and abide by their ethics and standards.

What I offer

I can offer individual long-term or short-term therapy in a safe and supportive environment. As an integrative counsellor, I use a variety of approaches in response to your needs. I do believe that we are all unique and so I draw on a number of approaches that help to facilitate a space to explore, cope and overcome the challenges that you are experiencing. I believe that we all have the potential to heal from wounds, obstacles and challenges that have happened during childhood or during our adult lives. 

Training, qualifications & experience

  • Higher National Certificate in Counselling
  • BACP Accredited Diploma in Counselling

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.

Key details

Wheelchair user access
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.
