About me

Hello and welcome! I’m Sarah a person-centred counsellor here to support you on your journey. My approach is rooted in creating a warm, non-judgmental space where you can feel truly heard and understood. I believe that every individual has the capacity for growth and healing and my role is to walk alongside you as you explore your thoughts, feelings, and experiences at your own pace. Whether you're facing a specific challenge or just need someone to talk to, I’m here to help you gain clarity and move towards a place of greater self-awareness and well-being. 

If this sounds like it could fit for you please do get in touch to arrange a 15 minute free consultation.

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.

Accredited register membership
