About me
Welcome! I'm Romilly, a fully qualified and registered BACP counsellor, offering counselling both online and in-person (in Totnes, Devon).
I have experience supporting clients with:
- Low self-esteem
- Anxiety
- Bereavement and loss, including pregnancy and baby loss
- Life transitions
- Faith shift, spiritual exploration, and deconstruction
- Feeling "stuck" or uncertain about the future
- Relational issues and communication difficulties
My approach is person-centred, non-judgemental, and tailored to your individual needs. I integrate mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), and somatic practices to help you increase self-awareness and develop self-compassion. Together, we will work at your pace to uncover your inner strengths, heal emotional wounds, and explore new ways of being.

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.

Additional information
Sessions are online or in person (Dartington, Devon) and an hour long. It can be daunting to take this step and finding the right counsellor for you is key, so I offer the first hour at half price (£30) to give you a chance to see what working with me is like. Let’s arrange a time to meet and we can take it from there!

Further information
One of my main sources of inspiration and solace is the natural world. I have deep and abiding love for it all, from moss to volcano. My particular love is rocks, and through the stories they tell about our deep past I find a sense of belonging and peace. This can't help but inform my therapeutic approach - we are part of the natural world too! I bring the same sense of awe and connection to help clients uncover their own deep resilience and potential for transformation. For me, the earth is a living teacher offering countless opportunities to be present, to wonder and to belong.
