About me
I am an Integrative Therapist who uses a range of techniques to ensure my clients benefit from an approach designed to meet their individual needs.
I utilise Cognitive Behavioural Therapy extensively having studied the application of CBT for anxiety at Masters Degree level with CBT being highly effective for anxiety, depression, anger problems and many more.
I specialise in helping clients to understand the underlying cause of their difficulties and working together to implement effective, solution focused ways of coping. I have built up a wealth of effective coping strategies for a wide range of different issues that can help to bring about meaningful and long lasting change.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have been working therapeutically with children, young people and adults for over 20 years. I work as a school counsellor and have a private therapy practice working with Universities, Axa and the NHS.
With degree level qualifications in CBT, Youth Counselling and a Masters degree in Counselling and Psychotherapy, you can be assured that the theoretical knowledge underpinning my practice is comprehensive but, most importantly, I build trusting and supportive relationships with my clients.
I am an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and practice in line with the BACPs Ethical Framework for the Counselling Professions.
I am also trained in 'Walk and Talk' therapy and am passionate about providing therapy outdoors in suitably private and risk assessed locations. In my experience, providing therapy outdoors can provide benefits above and beyond that which can be achieved in the confines of a therapy room.

Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
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.
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.
