About me
I provide a warm and sensitive counselling service at several locations around the Warlingham, Oxted and Sanderstead areas. I am a BACP qualified counsellor and I use an integrative style of therapy combining CBT, person-centered and psychodynamic which allows me to adapt my approach depending on the needs of my clients.
I offer counselling from age 14+ and have worked as an adolescent counsellor and psychotherapist for over 10 years. I am a qualified and accredited IPT-A practitioner. IPT-A (interpersonal psychotherapy training for adolescents) is an evidence based, effective and active intervention therapy for adolescents with depression.
I work with issues such as anxiety, depression, OCD, bereavement, relationship difficulties, anger, bullying and low self esteem.
I am a Registered Member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP), and adhere to their Professional Code of Conduct and Ethical Framework for Good Practice.

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.
