About me

Hello and welcome....

Is therapy right for you, right now? Perhaps you don't know, and that's okay. Maybe you're feeling anxious or depressed and just need someone to listen.

Can you imagine telling someone who looks like me, where you are with life and what that's like for you? Qualities I bring into the therapy room include curiosity, kindness, humour and respect.

What will it be like? I practise integrative psychotherapy, which means that I apply different theoretical models to the way that I think and work. This includes how we can safely guide the sometimes conflicting parts of your inner-world into an integrated, harmonious whole.

Issues I have experience with include: abuse, addiction, anger, assault, anxiety, avoidance, bereavement, criminality, depression, eating issues, existential crisis, exploitation, gender identity, ill health, isolation, life-on-street aka 'gangs', relationships, sex and sexuality, shame, social issues, stress, trauma.

Depending on what best suits your needs, you may, for example, experience me spotting patterns of relationships in your life. Our therapeutic relationship can then become a space to safely explore newer, healthier ways for you to be-in-relationship. Or I may invite you into the ever-present experience of your bodily feelings and sensations, which can nurture autonomy and enhance your capacity for self-reflection and awareness. And sometimes I'll just listen, perhaps because no one has listened to you before.

I have experience working across ethnic, cultural and class backgrounds and with multiple gender and sexual identities, learning and physical needs and abilities. I welcome and celebrate difference and diversity in all areas.

I enjoy playing my drum kit, swimming, and slow walks in nature.

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.

Accredited register membership

British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
Accredited Register Scheme

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.
