About me

If you are dealing with stress, anxiety, low mood, bereavement, bullying, trauma, family issues, lack of self-esteem, current or historic abuse I can help you find a way forward. From time to time everyone struggles and together we can find a way forward that improves how you feel.

I provide person-centred counselling in my office in the West End of Aberdeen. Person-centred counselling is focused on the right solution for you, you are unique and so is the solution. I am committed to helping people find the best outcome. I am BACP accredited counsellor. I offer face to face, online or telephone sessions. 

My office has free onsite parking to the rear of the building. Please call me for a telephone consultation.

Member organisations

school Registered / Accredited

Registered / Accredited

Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.

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.
