About me

Do you need someone to talk to? Maybe you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or lost?

You may be here because you are finding something challenging or, you’re not feeling like yourself. Sometimes we know what is causing these feelings and at other times we don’t. Having a safe non-judgmental space to discuss feelings such as discomfort, low mood, and anxiety, may help you to understand them and find the best way for you to move forward.

The thought of talking to a stranger may be daunting, and that's perfectly natural, it can take a lot of courage to make the decision to start counselling. I believe that therapy can be a fulfilling experience that helps us to better understand ourselves and can lead to making a big difference in our lives.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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.

Further information

I aim on building a strong and trusting relationship with my clients in a safe, non-judgmental, confidential space. I work in a relational way meaning I am led by my clients. Together, we can work at a pace that suits you.

I treat each of my clients as unique individuals. Your thoughts, feelings, personal beliefs, sexuality, heritage, political standpoint, humour, and world views all contribute to your identity and will be respected.

I was inspired to train to become a counsellor after my own empowering experience almost 15 years ago. I feel passionate and privileged that I get to offer people the same level of respect, empathy, unconditional support, trust, care, and compassion that I received all those years ago.

I will support you in our sessions with warmth, a sense of humour, genuineness, and respect.

Wheelchair user access info
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.
