About me

Life can feel bloody hard at times, maybe it feels that way most of the time for you right now. You may be anxious, stressed, grieving, depressed, or perhaps something just doesn’t feel right and you’re not sure why. Either way, you don’t have to face it alone.

I offer a space where we can think together about your experiences and make sense of what feels painful or confusing. I believe that understanding yourself more deeply, especially those parts of yourself that may not be conscious or feel hard to look at, can help you develop greater self-compassion, ease your emotional pain and improve your overall mental health.

I understand that reaching out for help can feel daunting, and the idea of a first session may be overwhelming. Because of this, I offer a free initial phone or video call to see if we are the right fit and answer any questions you might have. 

If you decide to begin counselling with me, I offer once weekly, in-person sessions in Frome and Bath at £56 per session (as of April 2026). If you would like to find out more, please feel free to get in touch or take a look at my website.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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

British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy

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.
