About me
Whether you feel like you don’t belong, are not good enough, feel lost, struggling with work life balance or feel stuck, feeling this way doesn’t have to last forever. Listen to the part of you that wants and knows there could be something different for you out there. Seeking support can be daunting but counselling offers the first step towards living life the way you want to live it. It can provide you with a safe space to voice your thoughts, feelings and a platform to understand who you are now and where you want to get to.
Working with me, we will sensitively explore your past for a deeper understanding of your present, whilst incorporating tools to foster self-compassion and achieve your objectives for the future. My journey has inspired my passion for helping others, particularly those who doubt their own abilities.
Training, qualifications & experience
I work both online and face to face from my therapy room in Long Eaton and Loughborough, commutable from parts of Derby, Nottingham and Leicester. Both venues have nearby free on street parking.
I offer counselling sessions either every week or every other week depending on your needs. The amount of sessions you have will vary depending your needs, but we will discuss this and work towards an ending.

Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
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.

Further information
We will meet for a free 15 minute consultation over the phone before our first session. This will help me to understand a bit more about your counselling preferences and why you are seeking therapy. You can also get to know a bit more about my Psychotherapy and coaching practice.
Should you wish to book a session after our phone call, I will send the contract through for you to have a look at before our first session.
