About me
I am a qualified Integrative Counsellor and a registered member of The British Association for Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP) and I abide by their ethical framework. I work in private practice, I am fully insured and hold a current and up to date enhanced DBS certificate.
I believe we all have the capacity to reach our full potential and enjoy life. As an Integrative Counsellor I have trained in many different models of therapy. I have learnt a number of skills and ways of working from the different models allowing me to tailor the way I work for each individual. I do not believe therapy is one size fits all. Everyone is different with a unique experience of the world.
Are you feeling scared, lonely, confused, anxious, sad or depressed? Do you feel you have nobody to talk to? No matter what your fears or concerns are I can provide a safe and welcoming environment, free of judgement, to explore your thoughts and feelings.
What to expect from counselling
I know the thought of starting therapy can feel scary or daunting but I will make you feel as comfortable as possible. I will listen and accept you in a space that is free from judgement. Through acceptance, empathy and the therapeutic relationship, you will be able to experience the change you are wanting.
In our first session we can discuss your hopes and expectations for therapy. I will explain the boundaries of counselling and how I can work with you. Any questions you may have about the process are warmly welcomed. This is an opportunity for you to explore what you want from therapy.

Memberships:
BACP- British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy
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.
