About me

Whatever you are going through, you don't have to be alone. Bring all of who you are and together we can sit and explore at your own pace, what is troubling you. We can  begin to work out and make sense of how your past experiences of life could have created ways of thinking and beliefs about yourself  and patterns of behaviour which are unhelpful for you now, causing you to seek counselling.

Making sense of what is troubling  can enable you to begin to make changes and to move forward in your life.

I am interested in your story and I have been told by clients that they experience me as calm and easy to talk to without  judgement.

Some clients find the presence of animals calming, helping them to feel at ease. For those clients, my 7 year old Golden Retriever Hogan is very happy to accompany us in the counselling session. He is a placid and friendly boy and passed his assessment in 2019 as a Pets as Therapy dog.

I am an integrative counsellor drawing on a range of modalities. The modalities I use are: Internal Family Systems, Gestalt, Psychodynamic, Transactional Analysis, Cognitive Behaviour Therapy, Mindfulness, Self Compassion, Creative interventions and imagery.

My counselling room is situated on the ground floor in the centre of Tiverton and is easily accessible from Exeter and surrounding areas. 

There is free parking outside the counselling room for clients and is accessible for wheelchair users.

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.

Key details

DBS check info

In England and Wales, the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS, formerly known as CRB) carry out criminal records checks for individuals working with vulnerable groups, such as children. To find out more, visit gov.uk , or contact this professional directly

Wheelchair user access info
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.

My counselling room is situated on the ground floor in the centre of Tiverton and is easily accessible for wheelchair users. There is free parking outside the counselling room for clients.
