About me
Hi, thank you for visiting my profile,
I am a qualified, experienced Integrative Counsellor and Registered Member of The British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and Accredited Member of the National Counselling Society (NCS)
I work in private practice offering face-to-face and online counselling. I am passionate about my work, and this has been proved by the many people I have been privileged to help and support to date. I have worked with clients across all age ranges, from age 5 to retirement. I have a keen interest in couples counselling and working with adolescents. I am fully committed to offering a welcoming service to all backgrounds in a supportive and non-discriminatory manner.
I aim to provide counselling opportunities that endeavour to create a supportive, non-judgmental environment in which you will be given time and space to understand and gain insight into your situation. This process can foster growth and lead to positive change in your life, but I will not be able to offer advice.
I use an ‘Integrative’ approach in my work with clients. This means that rather than specialising in one traditional approach, I seek to combine different approaches to provide the most effective way of working. I will always clearly explain how we will work together and what you can expect.

Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society This Not For Profit association of counsellors and psychotherapists aim to support the counselling profession, members and training organisations. In 2013 the NCS register was accredited by the Professional Standards Authority under the Accredited Voluntary Register Scheme. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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.
