About me
I am a warm, approachable person-centred counsellor with ten years' counselling experience. I also have over fifteen years' experience of working in one-to-one and group-settings in the substance abuse field. Based in a purpose built Therapy Room at my home address in Stoke Bishop, I aim to create a safe and trusted place where you can talk openly at your own pace.
What can I expect?
Initially, coming to counselling may feel like a challenging experience. However, I can assure you, it does get easier. The relationship we form is the most important and beneficial component. I will be there to listen and support you with whatever you want to bring. If it matters to you, it matters. All emotions and feelings are welcome, tears and laughter too. There are no expectations about how you should be in the counselling room; our only aim will be to work towards your personal goals and seek out positive change.

Member organisations
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
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.
