About me
I am a professional, reliable and ethical practitioner with a great deal of life experience. I have been counselling for 15 yrs and understand that each person is an individual in their own right and come with their own personal individual issues. With this in mind my approach to counselling is integrative.
As a volunteer over the past ten years I have been involved specifically with supporting women, and have developed a women’s group and run retreats for my local church. I also have created and delivered self esteem and confidence building courses for women of diverse backgrounds. I also work through an organisation called Deep Release, where the depth work uses many useful creative interventions.
In my private practice I use wide range of techniques to address issues including: anxiety, depression, work related stress, dreams, low self-esteem, bereavement, emotional and sexual abuse, and some forms of trauma and deep rooted issues.
I am a member of the Association of Christian Counsellors. I attended a Deep Release Regional Training Group and annual conferences and am continually achieving CPD.

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.
The Association of Christian Counsellors and Linked Professions is a professional body representing and setting standards for Christian counselling and care in the UK. The organisation is made up of various different membership categories, including Counsellor and Accredited, and requires all members working as counsellors to undertake Continuous Professional Development on a regular basis.
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.
