About me
I provide a safe, non-judgmental, confidential, supportive and caring environment for you to work through and process a wide range of issues, including but not limited to addiction, trauma, attachment, relationships, self-esteem, loss and grief.
My experience is working through addiction, and the complex challenges which present in this area for individuals, the person with an addiction and the non-addict. Often, addiction is accompanied by feelings of fear, shame and guilt. Recovering from addiction can involve looking at your story, validating your story and processing your emotions and your attachments in a safe and confidential space. You work at your pace, and starting our work together, we can begin to address the challenges and move towards positive outcomes, fostering a sense of hope and optimism.
As a person-centred therapist with a pluralist approach, I am committed to building the therapeutic alliance between you (the agent) and me (the counsellor) and working to develop a relational depth by exploring your feelings and sharing your emotions, and most importantly, start your healing journey with my full support.
Contact details are at the top right corner of my profile page. You can reach me via email or the booking system and choose a convenient time to arrange an initial 10-minute introductory call.

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.
