About me
Hello and welcome. Whatever difficulties you want help with, I offer a warm, non-judgmental space for you to be yourself.
I am a humanistic, person-centred counsellor. This approach to counselling is described as being 'non-directive' which means that the counsellor supports you to find the best way forward as an inividual rather than offering advice or trying to apply fixed ideas to how you should be or grow. This does not mean that I just sit and listen, but I am an active part in the relationship and can draw on my experience and training whilst being alongside you as a kind, respectful and empathic listener.
I have experience of working with people with a variety of themes including loss, anxiety and depression, career change/retirement, trauma, autism, being a refugee, identity and sexuality.
I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
Please look at my website or contact me for a 15min phone call to see if we think we could be a good fit to work together.

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.
