About me
I believe that most people already have the inner resources needed to feel mentally and emotionally well. My role is to work alongside clients to explore how life events, past experiences, relationships, and maybe, neurodivergence may be affecting their ability to feel comfortable, content, and fulfilled in their lives.
I approach therapy with curiosity and compassion, seeking to understand how each person has adapted and survived within their unique environment. Together, we explore the impact these adaptations may have had on mental health, self-understanding, and the way they experience the world and their place within it. Through this process of exploration and reflection, clients can begin to create meaningful shifts in their thoughts, behaviours, and relationships, allowing them to feel more at peace, calm, connected, and open to the joys of life.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have trained to Master's level as an Integrative Psychotherapist. This means I am able to draw upon and integrate a range of therapeutic theories and approaches, tailoring my work to each client's individual preferences, experiences, and needs. I am a fully qualified practitioner registered and accredited with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
I have experience and enjoy working with all categories of individuals and with a wide range of issues, and I have experience of working in a very focussed way for short term therapy contracts, or at a deeper level over many months.
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).
