About me
There are times when the struggles and challenges of life can feel really overwhelming. And whilst we may try to put on a brave face and get by as best as we can, the pressures of this can be physically, emotionally and mentally draining.
Asking for help can be a very big step to take but coping alone is likely to leave us stuck in out thoughts and feelings. Therapy can offer a safe space to make sense of those thoughts and feelings, and can also shed light on the patterns of behaviour that are holding us back. Once we have identified the areas in need of change we are free to choose a different approach - one that will serve us better.
I am an Integrative counsellor and a Wellbeing life coach and my aim is to build a counselling relationship based on trust and client empowerment. Life will inevitably continue to present challenges and through making positive changes to their lives, my clients will have the right tools to overcome those challenges.
You have taken that initial big step by considering that therapy may be right for you at this stage in your journey. If you feel that I can help and you would like to find out more then please contact me.
Training, qualifications & experience
As an integrative counsellor, I draw techniques from the theories of Person Centred Counselling, Gestalt, and TA. I am also a wellbeing life coach and as a dual practitioner, I integrate tools from Motivational Interviewing, Positive Psychology, Erikson's Life stages, Petruska Clarkson 5- Stage model and others.
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.
