About me
I understand how challenging it can be to take the first step to reach out for therapy, so everything will be done at your pace. I am a naturally warm and kind person, so I will ensure you feel safe, heard and valued as we explore your inner world collaboratively.
I specialise in childhood trauma and working with adults who grew up in difficult or emotionally unsafe environments.
I provide face to face counselling the centre of Littlehampton, West Sussex, or I can provide online (video call) sessions from anywhere in the UK.
I offer weekly or fortnightly sessions.
I offer a free initial consultation, giving you the opportunity to see if working together feels right for you.
Training, qualifications & experience
Beyond my private practice, I bring extensive experience as a Senior Counsellor and Counselling Assessor with a local charity and in my voluntary role as a Trauma Risk Assessor, which has deepened my knowledge and understanding of trauma and how it can impact both our emotional and physical wellbeing.
Alongside trauma and inner child work, I also support clients with grief, anxiety, depression, and low self-esteem.
I hold the following qualifications:
- BACP approved CPCAB Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling
- BTEC Level 3 Advanced Award in supporting trauma risk management
- Mental Health First Aider
- I also hold CPD certificates in Inner Child work, Suicide first aid and equine-assisted therapy amongst others.
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.
