About me
Hello, and a warm welcome to you.
I’m Pam a qualified and accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) with over 10 years of experience supporting people within the NHS, counselling charities and private practice. I am neurodivergent, and have experience of working with neurodivergence.
Reaching out for support can feel like one of the hardest steps to take. You might be feeling overwhelmed, exhausted, anxious, low, grieving, or simply not quite yourself. Sometimes life changes suddenly. Sometimes it slowly becomes heavy. Either way, you don’t have to carry it alone.
I truly believe that when we are offered the right space one that feels safe, accepting and free from judgement something powerful can begin to shift. My role is not to tell you what to do or who to be, but to walk alongside you. To really listen. To understand your world as you experience it.
At Peace of Mind Counselling, I offer a calm, confidential and compassionate space where you can explore whatever feels important to you. There is no pressure and no expectation just time and room for you.
I offer face-to-face counselling in the Redditch area, as well as online and telephone sessions, allowing flexibility around your life and commitments.
If you’re feeling unsure about starting counselling, that’s completely natural. I will meet you with warmth, authenticity and respect. Together, we can work towards helping you reconnect with yourself and move toward a greater sense of clarity and peace.
Training, qualifications & experience
My professional training includes:
Foundation Degree in Person-Centred Counselling & Psychotherapy
PCE CfD Counsellor (Person-Centred Experiential Counselling for Depression)
PCE CfD Supervisor
Certificate in Counselling Skills Level 2
Diploma in Health Care
Mental Health First Aid (extensive training and applied experience)
Freedom and Form Supervision (Person Centred)
Over the past decade, I have supported people experiencing depression, anxiety, bereavement, caring responsibilities, end-of-life journeys, and the impact of life-changing diagnoses.
My early background in carer support deeply shaped my understanding of how quietly people can struggle while appearing “strong” on the outside. I have worked within charities, the NHS and private practice, and I continue to be moved by the courage people show when they allow themselves to be heard.
My approach is person-centred at its core. I may gently incorporate mindfulness where helpful, but our work is always guided by you at your pace, your needs, your story. I work holistically, recognising that emotional wellbeing connects with every part of your life.
As an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), I adhere to their Ethical Framework for Good Practice. This includes ongoing supervision and continuing professional development, ensuring that I offer safe, ethical and reflective practice.
I hold an Enhanced DBS certificate and am fully insured.
Member organisations
Accredited Register Member (BACP)
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.
