About me
I am a compassionate counsellor with experience supporting a diverse range of clients from a variety of backgrounds and age groups. My work has included helping individuals dealing with various emotional and psychological challenges, like, depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, substance use disorders and life transitions. I aspire to help clients develop healthier coping mechanisms, build resilience, and move towards a more balanced and fulfilling life.
I work using an integrative approach where I tailor therapy to each individual's needs, using elements of person-centred therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) and mindfulness. I am committed to building a strong therapeutic relationship based on empathy, trust and respect, which I believe is the foundation for meaningful 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).
