About me
Solace Counselling & Psychotherapy, is a safe space, where you can share your story and feel seen, heard and validated.
Are you struggling with your mental health, is low mood, or anxiety weighing you down? Perhaps low confidence and self esteem is holding you back, from living your life to it's full potential? Maybe you suspect that you are in a narcissistic relationship and need some support to understand what is happening to you, or you have left and want to begin the healing process? Is past or present trauma, impacting on your life and effecting how you relate to others? Or maybe the loss of a loved one has become overwhelming and you need some support to process what you are experiencing? These are just a few examples of the life issues, that I can help you with, so why not get in touch, for a free, no obligation, introductory chat, and we can take it from there. I look forward to hearing from you. Best wishes, Marcia

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.
