About me
Are you experiencing feelings of anxiety, low self-esteem, self-doubt or depression? Do you need some support and strategies to help deal with these overwhelming feelings or maybe just someone to talk to?
I have over 20 years experience working within a listening profession. I am a qualified counsellor and I am also a tutor on the counselling foundation degree program with Middlesex university helping new therapists to learn and develop their skills. I have previously worked as a nurse for many years, giving me a wealth of experience in trauma and bereavement.
I am a member of the LGBTQ+ community which gives me insight into issues around sexuality, gender and identity. My work and life experience enable me to offer a unique, non-judgemental, open minded environment for you to share feelings and explore ideas.
I work face to face and online and am happy to have an initial phone conversation with you to see if you feel I may be able to help.

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.
