About me
I offer a warm, supportive, non-judgemental, and completely confidential service. I am in the Brighton and Hove area, but available online across the UK. I am fully insured and a registered member of the BACP. I adhere to their ethical framework which provides a set of principles and values.
I believe Counselling and Psychotherapy is a very personal process, and every client is unique. I am committed to working with every individual in a way that is tailored to their therapeutic needs. I believe the relationship between client and counsellor to be key in making positive change. I am empathetic and engaged, collaboratively we can explore your needs and process what arises together.
My therapeutic approach is Integrative which means I work in the way that is most suitable to you by drawing on different counselling therapeutic approaches and theories depending on your needs and preference. I believe that counselling and psychotherapy is creative and collaborative. You are always in charge of the therapy process and I am here to support you. In a nutshell, I offer a confidential and space where you can bring whatever is troubling you. Together, we can explore what’s going on, at a pace that’s right for you.

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.
