About me
Perhaps you are feeling anxious, depressed, experiencing low self-esteem or struggling to make sense of a relationship or your own thoughts and feelings? It can be really difficult to talk openly sometimes, but its possible that speaking to someone, independent from family or friends, and in a safe and confidential space might help unpack your experiences, offer clarification, some relief and work towards making informed positive changes in your life that lead to personal empowerment and a more fulfilled life.
Creating a counselling experience that feels accessible, safe and comfortable is a priority for me. I offer a warm, quiet, neurodivergent- and LGBTQI+-affirming space where you can talk freely and openly, at your own pace, without judgement or being overwhelmed with advice.
Whether you’re curious about how counselling might work for you or looking for a new counselling experience, I offer a free initial consultation where we can talk about what brought you here, get a sense of what you’re looking for, and simply take it from there

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.
