About me

Hi, I’m Meg.

I’m a counsellor and psychotherapist working with both adults and children. I offer a warm, down-to-earth space where you can talk openly, without feeling judged or analysed.

I use an integrative approach to counselling and tailor a plan thats best suited for you using varied methods. 

I also offer Eco therapy which is essentially walk and talks [Females only] this means we can take the therapy session outside and we will have an hour to walk and talk about whats going on for you. I also accept pets on walk and talks so if you have a furry friend that you would like to bring for comfort, this is more than okay. 

If you would like more information about how I work, please arrange a free consultation with me and I will talk you though it all.

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.
