About me
I believe counselling is about providing a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space, empowering clients to explore their needs at their own pace and in their own time. With over 15 years of experience working with trauma in both adults and young people, I am trained to practice in a trauma-informed way.
I understand that counselling can sometimes feel daunting. By fostering a trusting and comfortable therapeutic relationship, I strive to create an environment where growth and healing are possible. Whether you are navigating challenges related to low self-worth or other difficulties, I am here to support you on your unique journey. My experience with both young people and adults allows me to adapt to your specific needs and goals.
Training, qualifications & experience
Take an integrative approach to therapy, meaning I draw from a variety of modalities to best meet your individual needs. My practice primarily incorporates person-centred, psychodynamic, and CBT techniques, providing a flexible and tailored therapeutic experience.
I offer both online and face-to-face sessions, giving you the option to choose what works best for your circumstances.
I specialise in working with individuals who have experienced addiction, sexual trauma, domestic abuse (physical and emotional), workplace and relationship trauma. In addition, I have worked with a broad range of client concerns, including supporting elite athletes and professional footballers.
I spent several years supporting families and children who have had social services intervention and understand the lasting impact this can have on adult life.
To help you decide if I’m the right fit for you, I offer a free 15-minute introductory call.
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.
