About me
I am able to offer a safe, non-judgemental space for you to explore issues you are facing and help you to understand yourself further. I offer a supportive environment where empathy and honesty are central to the relationship, thus providing a platform where exploration, growth and change can occur.
Finding the right therapist can be hard, it feels important to me you get someone who you feel you can connect with. They are able to offer what feels a safe place to be open and honest - a platform to explore any problems or issues that you are currently experiencing which are possibly affecting your life. Contact me to see if i am suitable for you.
Get started - please contact me via email or telephone for a free 10 minute chat to see if I am able to help you.
If you do go ahead with counselling with me, sessions are usually weekly but I am flexible and will also work fortnightly. Look forward to hearing from you.

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.
