About me
Sometimes life feels challenging and overwhelming. You may be struggling with anxiety, feeling constantly stressed, or unsure about how to move forward. Perhaps you feel unheard or are coping with a recent bereavement. Taking the first step can be difficult, and I understand how hard that can be.
I offer a calm, non-judgemental, and warm space where we can work together to explore the sources of your stress. I have experience helping individuals overcome challenges related to depression, anxiety, and trauma. I also have extensive experience supporting people with neurodiversity.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a qualified counsellor working with a personal integrative approach. By offering you a confidential space to explore your concerns, we can start to learn and understand what will aid you on your journey. As a person, I am warm, friendly, and approachable, and I have experience working with adults and young people.
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.
