About me
I am a relational counsellor who works with individuals as well as couples, friends, coworkers and family members. Trained as an integrative counsellor working from a base of multiple theoretic perspectives including Attachment Theory, Transactional Analysis, Solution, CBT, Psychodynamic and Person-Centred which allows me to tailor my approach based on the needs of individual clients or couples.
In order for counselling to be the most effective, you need to find the right person with the right approach for you. To allow you to sense if you feel comfortable working with me, I offer a free 20 minute initial online session to allow you to decide if I am the right counsellor to support you through whatever it is that brings you to counselling.
Training, qualifications & experience
PGDip - I hold a Post Graduate Diploma in Relational Counselling
With clinical experience in supporting clients through a range of difficulties including relationship problems, anxiety, depression, bereavement, disability, affairs and betrayals, isolation, addiction, religious trauma, stress, work-related issues and suicidal thoughts. Having worked in farming on dairy and beef and sheep farms, I have a specialised focus and desire to support individuals working in agricultural roles and the specific challenges that come from working in that industry.
Creating a strong therapeutic relationship is the core foundation of the work that I do and treat it with the utmost importance. All clients are met with unconditional positive regard, compassion and empathy.
I am guided by the BACP ethical framework to create a confidential and ethical space for clients to feel confident in being open and honest in therapy.
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.
