About me
I offer an integrative approach, which allows for me to be flexible within my expertise to each individual client using a combination of person-centred, psychodynamic and CBT. I also use art therapy techniques and play therapy techniques
I work with adults, children and young people (aged 5-18) and offer both short and long term sessions.
I have professional and personal experience in the areas I work in and I offer a safe, congruent, non-judgemental and confidential environment.
I am a qualified Rebound Therapist, offering open sessions within North Somerset. Sessions offered are 1:1, 2:1 and small groups.
I adhere to the BACP code of ethics and have a current DBS check

Member organisations

British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
BACP is one of the UK’s largest professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy. Therapists registered with the Association fall into a number of different membership categories such as Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP and Registered Member MBACP (Accred), each standing for different levels of training and experience. MBACP (Accred) and MBACP (Snr Accred) members have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by the Association.
Registered members can be found on the BACP Register, which was the first register to achieve Accredited Voluntary Register status issued by the Professional Standards Authority. Individual Members will have completed an appropriate counselling and/or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but will not appear on the BACP Register until they've progressed to Registered Member MBACP status.
All members are bound by a Code of Ethics & Practice and a Complaints Procedure. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
