About me

Hello and welcome. I offer a warm, welcoming, confidential counselling service where you can feel free to discuss any issues you are experiencing in your life. 

I am a Integrative Humanistic Counsellor and I work in a person-centred way with Adults of all ages, I work with the client to help them find solutions that are right for them. Counselling can help you to understand yourself better, give you resources to deal with life in a different way, build resilience and help you to make choices and decisions that are authentic, empowering you to feel more in control which will ease feelings of anxiety and depression.

My aim as a therapist is to help my client achieve their own goals by working through and accepting the events of their life.  Sometimes we do not even know why we feel the way we do but we feel something is wrong, counselling can provide an warm, non-judgmental space to open up and explore the way we are feeling. Counselling can have a positive impact on the relationship you have with other people,  as well as the one you have with yourself.

I have experience working with anxiety and depression, relationship issues, stress, panic disorder, grief, stress relating to life as a carer, Menopause and effects of long term illness. I also work with clients who have experienced narcissistic abuse . 

I volunteered with Macmillan Cancer Counselling supporting patients and families. I also have experience working with Autistic Adults and their families and experience working with Carers.

I work in Private Practice in Hove and Brighton at 'The Practice Rooms' seeing clients in person. I also offer online (Zoom) sessions. You can have support whilst in a space that is convenient for you, and which is safe and confidential.

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.
