About me
Finding the right Counsellor is massively important if you are looking to take a deep dive into what is troubling you. I offer my clients a safe, calm and judgement free space to explore their thoughts and feelings and what is troubling them in the here and now. I have a professional and personal understanding of trauma, addiction and long term health issues. I would like to extend my open-minded and empathic understanding to those who feel they need help during their own tougher times
For further information and to see if my way of being is right for you, please feel free to contact me. During a free 20 minute consultation, we can discuss your thoughts and what you would like to get out of our time together.
I have counselling rooms based in the centre of Glasgow, and I work both in-person and online.

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.
