About me
You may be facing on-going challenges such as anxiety or depression, or trying to make sense of a past experience such as a loss. Whatever your situation, I provide a warm, collaborative space, free from judgement, where you can feel heard, understood and supported to find ways to heal and grow.
Creating space to reflect on what you are going through and to gently explore the beliefs that may be influencing you, can be a powerful step toward growth and healing. My approach is collaborative and together, we will discover meaningful ways forward that feel right for you.
Booking sessions:
- I offer a free no-obligation twenty minute consultation either over the phone or online so that we can discuss what you are looking to get out of counselling and how we could work together.
- Counselling session are 50 minutes and cost £50.
- Sessions are typically weekly and can be either in person in Winchester or online.
- Your first session will be an opportunity for us to explore together what has brought you to counselling and what you are hoping to gain.
- We will regularly reflect on our work together and you can let me know if there are any adjustments that you might need.
- Please take a look at my website (www.growthfulcounselling.co.uk) to find out more information about me and how I work, and get in touch if you would like to explore how we could work together.

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.
