About me
Hello. I am an independent integrative therapist. I don’t believe that one size fits all for therapy and use a variety of therapy styles to create an individual programme to support each client.
Finding the right therapist is a daunting challenge and I advise clients to ring around to talk to people before they commit. Making a positive choice to work with a particular therapist is a major mental buy-in for your trust.
I generally work from a therapy space that has been purpose-built. It offers a discreet, warm calm space to explore thoughts and emotions. Sometimes clients prefer a walk-and-talk session in the country park across the road and sometimes Video sessions are more suitable.
I run a warm and relaxed practice, often using humour, reflection and learnings from my own therapy and life experiences to relate to clients. I am in the process of training our Puppy to work as a therapy dog. Depending on how well that goes, she will be joining us for sessions and walks at client's request.

Member organisations
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
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.
