About me
I conduct my therapy from a studio unit at the rear of my house. I have found that being in a calming and relaxing environment often helps when talking with my clients, as I want them to feel as comfortable as possible when we are in therapy. I also offer video/audio sessions if you live far away or do not have time to visit me at my studio.
I have extensive experience in listening, counselling, mentoring and encouraging adults, professionals and young people and families, working systemically in a pluralistic way. I am committed to working with those who are struggling with anxiety, depresion and a range of challenging life issues, empowering my clients to move forward with a fresh perspective on their lives. To date, I have carried out over 1,500 hours of supervised clinical work and more recently I have focussed on working with those suffering from anxiety, depression, panic attacks, addictions and trauma (complex PTSD).
My model of therapy will put you, the client, at the centre of our partnership. This can be extended to family and those people who are connected to you and is often technically described as, ‘working systemically’, exploring all those things that impact your life. This can also be explored through mentoring and coaching.
I offer a free initial assessment to see if you would like to work together. Please email me or call to arrange an initial assessment or for more information.

Working Therapeutically
One of my goals for counselling will be to enable and empower you, the client, to move forward with a fresh perspective. This has been underpinned by my initial training at degree level in broad theories of counselling and then at Masters level in Integrative Psychotherapy. In my early counselling practice, much of my work was centred around classic CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy). As an accredited member of the BACP (British Association of Counselling & Psychotherapy , I work under their ethical guidelines.

Member organisations
school 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 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.
