About me
I am an integrative counsellor specialising in a person-centred approach, creating a safe and supportive environment where you can feel truly heard and understood. My work is grounded in the belief that each person has the capacity for growth and change when offered the right conditions of empathy, respect, and understanding. I am committed to working ethically and providing counselling that is confidential, compassionate, and tailored to your individual needs. My integrative style means I draw on a range of therapeutic approaches, while always keeping your experiences and goals at the centre of our work together.
I offer a calm, non-judgemental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings at your own pace, supporting you to gain clarity, build resilience, and move towards positive change.

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.
