About me
I am a fully qualified and accredited counsellor, and former nurse, offering a safe and caring space in which to explore your difficulties or issues. I offer sessions both face to face and online, via zoom.
It can sometimes be difficult to share personal feelings and information with friends and family and so counselling can provide the space in which to speak honestly and without fear of being judged.
As a Person Centred Counsellor I believe that everyone can, with help, work towards an understanding of their own issues if they can explore these in an environment in which they feel heard, valued and understood. This respectful approach ensures that we will always work at your own pace and with the problems that you wish to discuss.
I understand how hard it can be to take the first step towards counselling and so I offer a free 10 minute phone call where I can answer any queries you may have. From this you can then choose whether you would like to book an initial session.

Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
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.

Additional information
It can be daunting to take the first steps towards talking about personal information and so I offer a free 10 minute telephone consultation in which we can discuss how counselling might help and to answer any questions you may have.
We can then arrange an initial session , during which you have the chance to see whether you feel comfortable and at ease. This allows you to decide whether you would like to work together going forward.
