About me

Sometimes events in life can throw us off course and we may feel stuck, confused, and unsure about how to proceed. Or perhaps on some level, we’ve always felt that way.

Asking for help can be challenging and I deeply respect and honour your courage in considering taking that step.

Whether you’re navigating a difficult situation or seeking deeper healing, you needn’t face it alone and I’m committed to helping you find your way forward.

As a relational psychotherapeutic counsellor, I believe the relationship created between us is a unique and integral part of the therapeutic process, capable of offering us insight. I understand how important it is for you to feel safe and able to trust I will not judge you for what you share, and I appreciate this may take some time to develop. I aim to create and foster a space in which all of you feel welcome, the light, the dark, and everything in between.

We are complex beings, and many things will have shaped us, perhaps in ways we don’t yet understand. But each of us deserves the opportunity to define and discover what a full and meaningful life looks like. I hope that our collaborative efforts will leave you feeling more empowered to meet life and its challenges on your own terms.

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
Accredited Register Scheme

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.
