About me
Hi and welcome! My name is Sal, and I’m a friendly, compassionate and experienced BACP Registered Counsellor. I can support you in managing relationships, grief, suicidal thoughts, anxiety, addiction and many more of life’s challenges. I also have a deep understanding of human psychology and neurodiversity, particularly ADD, ADHD and autism.
In our sessions, I provide a safe space for you to explore your emotions, gain insight, and achieve positive change. My therapeutic approaches include CBT, Psychodynamic, Gestalt, and Person-Centred methods, all tailored to your preferences and goals.
I offer a free 10-minute phone call where we can discuss what you'd like to manage or overcome, with no obligation to book a session afterwards. To make therapy accessible, I primarily offer online and telephone counselling sessions for anyone with an internet connection or a phone.
The first step is normally the hardest, I am here to walk along side you at your pace.
*Lower-cost sessions are available for low-income earners and students. Please inquire for details. Spaces are limited, enquire today!

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.
