About me
Relationship help, built around real life
Crafted from over 15 years of working with couples, BetterAtUs brings together everything I have learnt, developed, and use in my practice into one easy-to-understand, practical 6-part framework.
You work through it together, at home and at your own pace, with my personal face-to-face or video guidance when you need it.
Couples are telling me that it not only works but that it gives them far more than they imagined. They say it's my personal guidance that makes the difference. I think this is because I work with them as I do my face to face clients.
If you'd like to find out all about it, how it works and whether it's right for you, simply visit BetterAtUs.com.
FOR WHEN YOU WANT TRADITIONAL HELP
If you think you would prefer traditional face to face help you can find out all about me and my practice at WholePsychology.co.uk.
Finally, please feel free to call me with any questions, or if you're unsure and would like to know whether it is right for you and your circumstances.
I'll always be pleased to hear from you and give you my time. There's no obligation — simply a chance for you to ask what you need to ask and find out what you need to know.

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.
