About me
I am a qualified Integrative Counsellor and a registered member (MBACP) of British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists working in the Birmingham area. Integrative counselling means my therapeutic model integrates features from different theories of counselling, according to your need so its tailored to you.
I have experience of working with adults with a variety of issues from anxiety,depression, relationship issues, struggling to get back to work, low confidence or self esteem, bereavement and loss.
If you are struggling with life, feeling sad or just having a blip and need a helping hand then I can help. Take the first step and give me a call, text or email to arrange an assessment session where we can meet and discuss your therapy needs and how we can work together in counselling sessions.

Member organisations
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
BACP is one of the UK’s largest professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy. Therapists registered with the Association fall into a number of different membership categories such as Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP and Registered Member MBACP (Accred), each standing for different levels of training and experience. MBACP (Accred) and MBACP (Snr Accred) members have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by the Association.
Registered members can be found on the BACP Register, which was the first register to achieve Accredited Voluntary Register status issued by the Professional Standards Authority. Individual Members will have completed an appropriate counselling and/or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but will not appear on the BACP Register until they've progressed to Registered Member MBACP status.
All members are bound by a Code of Ethics & Practice and a Complaints Procedure. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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).
