About me
Welcome. I’m glad you’ve taken this step.
I understand how difficult it can be to reach out for help, so please be assured that should we choose to work together, I will offer you a quiet shelter where you can explore whatever you are carrying at a pace that feels safe for you.
Whether you are working through the complex emotional landscapes of bereavement and trauma, or navigating anxiety and depression, I can be there alongside you in those heavy moments that feel difficult to carry alone.
My experience puts you at the centre, and I will offer you a compassionate and non-judgmental sanctuary where you can feel heard, understood, and supported. I believe that every individual has the capacity for growth and healing when given the right environment and therapeutic relationship.
Taking the first step can feel daunting. If you’d like to see if we are a good fit, please send me a message using the form below to book a free, no-obligation 20-minute phone consultation.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have a Diploma in Humanistic Counselling from the University of Chichester and am a registered member (MBACP) of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
My counselling experience has centred on supporting adults through a wide range of difficult and often deeply personal experiences, including trauma, depression, and anxiety. I have also worked with clients who have been affected by domestic and sexual abuse, offering a safe, compassionate, and non-judgemental space in which they can begin to explore and make sense of their experiences. More recently, much of my work has involved sitting alongside clients through bereavement and grief in its many forms, supporting them as they navigate loss, change, and the complex emotions that can come with it.
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.
