About me
Hi, I’m Natalie.
I’m a qualified person-centred counsellor with a Level 5 qualification in CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy), passionate about supporting individuals through life’s challenges in a warm, safe, and non-judgemental space.
I understand that reaching out for counselling can feel daunting, often it's a step people put off for a long time. You might be here because something painful has happened that you don't want to carry alone. You've already taken a brave first step just by looking for support.
I believe that building a trusting therapeutic relationship is at the heart of meaningful change. My role is to walk alongside you, helping you develop greater self-awareness, process difficult experiences, strengthen resilience, and make positive changes at your own pace.
Alongside my person-centred approach, my CBT training allows me to support clients in understanding how thoughts, emotions, and behaviours can impact wellbeing, while developing practical tools and coping strategies where appropriate.
My Experience
Throughout my counselling career, I have worked within organisations and charities supporting individuals experiencing a wide range of mental health and emotional difficulties.
I have supported clients with issues including:
Anxiety and depression
Low self-esteem and confidence
Relationship difficulties and breakdowns
Domestic abuse
Grief and loss
Emotional overwhelm
Self-harm and suicidal thoughts.
Alongside my client work, I have also supported and managed student counsellors, mentoring them throughout their training and clinical placement experience.
In person sessions are held in Mold, Flintshire. I also offer telephone or video sessions to individuals across the UK.

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.
