About me
What do you need? Are you lost? In pain? Numb? Anxious?
Do you know what counselling involves and what may suit you?
I see clients in my own home in the village of Quainton. It is a warm, safe, private space. Log fire in the winter. Home visits are a possibility in some circumstances after discussion and consideration. I also offer sessions on Zoom and Walk and Talk therapy near Quainton.
I am offering a free half hour session where you can explore your needs, hopes and aims. You can ask questions and I can give an overview of what I have to offer. My training was rooted in the Person-centred approach with a progression to CBT and Transactional Analysis. Later I studied the psychodynamic method and introduced various creative interventions where appropriate. Experience has taught me to tailor what I deliver to the needs of each individual, drawing on many theories, concepts and practices. Together we can decide how to go forward and if we can work together.
As well as independent practice I also have experience working within agencies. I have worked with young people (11 to 18) in secondary education and also resettlement counselling in association with the criminal justice system. More recently, I worked with SAASS, the Aylesbury Vale and Milton Keynes Sexual Assault and Abuse Support Service.
As an aside. I was employed for many years in a private sector environment working in teams and dealing with high stress and emergency situations. I have a special interest in the effects of shift work on self and relationships.
I work with many presenting issues, to the list below I would add living with developmental disorders and mental health issues in the family and chronic pain.

Member organisations
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
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.
