About me

With over ten years experience in providing therapeutic relationships to a range of clients. Over 9 years experience of working with young people and students and now working with private clients and IAPT patients.

My first class Honours Degree in psychotherapy and counselling concentrated upon the theory of personality. Issues my client bring to me come from a broad spectrum.

  • Anxiety + Panic
  • Depression + Low Mood
  • Relationship + Couples Issues
  • Anger + Frustration
  • Family + Teenage Issues
  • Dissatisfaction + Unhappiness

I have also studied focusing, CBT, mindfulness, couples and group facilitation, coaching and creative thinking.

I am member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP). I work with:

  • Adults
  • Young people (11 plus)
  • Older people who thought they were too old to change
  • Struggling family units
  • People who want to realise a fulfilling life

Please feel free to text / call or email.

The sessions will take place in a private and relaxed environment.

Training, qualifications & experience

I have a first class BA (Hons) Degree in Person Centred Counselling awarded from the University of East Anglia and the University of Essex.  I have a BETEC Diploma in Counselling skills from Great Yarmouth College, and am a registered Member of British Association in Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) working towards accreditation. I regularly participate in further training to enhance my practice and skills.

My experience:

I have experience of counselling within organisations such as IAPT working with NHS referrals, Centre 33 (Young people), and Access Community Trust (Housing needs).  I spent time working as an addictions counsellor for Open Road (Drugs and Alcohol), and as a trainee tutor for the Access to Counselling Course at Great Yarmouth College. I have also gained 8 years experience working in colleges in and around Cambridge and currently still offering counselling to students across Cambridgeshire. 

I am most passionate about supporting people to develop and enhance their self awareness, and psycho-education. 

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
