About me

You are making the first step into therapy, by being curious and looking here to see who you might like to contact and work with. Your aims may be to have some peace, feel contentment, understand a relationship or yourself more deeply. 

I offer a safe space where we can work together to identify, explore and work through things that are troubling you. My approach is warm and empathetic and I will collaborate with you to identify any emotions and challenges you may be facing aiming to help you to feel heard, accepted and understood.

As you take this path to a more contented self, I will always be honest with you and show you nothing but empathy, compassion and understanding.

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.
