About me
Welcome, I'm Sal
I'm a friendly, compassionate, and experienced NCPS Registered Counsellor, here to support you through life’s toughest moments. Whether you're navigating relationships, grief, suicidal thoughts, anxiety, addiction, or simply feeling overwhelmed - I offer a safe, non-judgmental space to help you find clarity and strength.
I have a deep understanding of addiction, neurodiversity, especially ADD, ADHD, and autism. I tailor every session to your unique needs and goals.
I offer a free 10-minute phone consultation - no pressure, no obligation. Just a chance to talk about what you’re facing and how I can help.
I provide online video and telephone sessions to make therapy easy to access from wherever you are. You’ll just need a phone or a laptop and an internet connection. I currently do not offer in‑person sessions.
The first step is often the hardest. I’m here to walk beside you, at your pace, every step of the way.
You can email or phone me with any queries - I'm happy to help.

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.
