About me
How I am able to help you;
If you are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, ADHD, burnout or over-thinking, or past experiences, which still affect you; such as childhood trauma, adversity or abuse, then therapy may help you. Maybe you struggle with understanding or managing emotions.
If you are experiencing difficulty, getting a better understanding of what's happening is the first step:
these difficulties can make you feel alone or different to others, or prevent you from reaching your full potential, robbing you of life’s pleasure and joys.
Therapy is an opportunity to identify what you need and create change and benefits. You can bring the quality back to your life again and create meaningful outcomes.
Services:
Counselling and Psychology is a complimentary approach; helping you to understand the ways you think, feel and behave. It can support you during difficult times and improve mental health and self esteem. It also assist with problem solving which makes things appear less complicated or fearful. It enhances your self awareness and enables you to create better coping strategies. Your self esteem and confidence should improve as you progress.
Understanding the how and why of the difficulty:
By understanding what's going on behind the scenes, we become more able to make real choices and implement sustainable change.
You can begin to set realistic goals about the kind of future you want and feel more in control. You may be surprised how quickly you can get things off the ground.
Purposing an evidenced based approaches & strategies & identifying the factors which maintain the problems, we can step out of difficulty, creating new ways to tackle the stressful stuff we have to cope with, navigating our lives with confidence and enjoy life again.
Therapy can also help us to recover from past difficulties, which may have left us with responses which play out in the here and now. By exploring these experiences, we're able to consolidate past difficulty; creating stability and balance. Bringing more of the joys we're looking for and becoming more resilient. All interventions are uniquely tailored to meet individual needs.
About me:
My approach comes from extensive clinical practice, and training, and my ability to identify root causes of difficulty: creating the best fit and match for you.
These approaches may be to address habits, mood, regulation, historical experience, issues with processing among others, without making assumptions about your experiences.
Good therapy means tailored strategies; what works well for one person, may not work so well for another. My style is warm, open and collaborative and achieving your outcome is important to me.
Professional experience;
I have 17 years experience in practice and I'm registered with BACP and accredited with NCPS. I'm a graduate member of the British Psychological Society and I’m Bupa registered.
I’m committed to professional development. I've held leadership roles in a large well known charity. Also as a trauma informed therapist.

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.
