About me
I am a qualified counsellor working with teenagers (12+), adults and couples. I am an Integrative counsellor, which means that I am able to use a range of counselling approaches in order to best meet your needs and requirements. These include Person Centred, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Psychodynamic, Solution-Focused, Transactional Analysis (TA). I am also a counselling lecturer and clinical supervisor.
Making the decision to access counselling can feel like an incredibly big step. I work in a client-focused way, offering you a safe space and building up a trust so that we can work through your reasons for accessing counselling.
My role as a counsellor is not to offer you advice or guidance but to use my skills to enable you to explore your thoughts and feelings and find your own answers within. We can work together to achieve your goals and explore any issues.
I am based in Widnes, Cheshire. I offer face to face, remote and telephone counselling and psychotherapy.

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.
