About me

I understand that the decision to enter counselling is not easy but sometimes we need to help ourselves, speak with someone and find a way to improve our quality of life. I believe that counselling is often the most effective way for you to solve problems or issues in your life. I am a fully qualified Person Centered Counsellor and I believe we are all human beings of equal value. We all deserve somebody who will hear us and understand what that means on our deepest level, and who will accept us without judgement.

I offer a non-directive and non- judgmental atmosphere in my sessions. I also understand how important it is to maintain confidentiality during our counselling sessions. I am experienced in short-term, medium term and open-ended therapy. We can discuss what approach you feel is best for you at our first meeting.

 The location is close to the M42 junction 9 and 10 and free parking space is available. During the Covid 19 pandemic I also offer counselling via internet  Zoom or by phone.

As a member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), I always adhere to their ethical guidelines.

I have regular clinical supervision which ensures the efficacy and safety of my practice, I undertake continuous professional development.

I have an enhanced Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check.

National Counselling & Psychotherapy Society (NCPS)

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.

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.
