About me
My job as a counsellor is to help you through life's difficult times. To support you and to help you to grow when you find yourself most challenged. Most people, at least at some point in their life, find themselves struggling, in a crisis or challenged. These times, what can seem awful, also hold our potential for growth and change. Helping you navigate this is my speciality and expertise. I do this with a considerable background of experience and training as well my own personal experience of pain and growth. My style of counselling has been described as 'straight to the point' but I believe and hope this is always balanced with sensitivity, respect and understanding. My training integrated the approaches of person centred, gestalt and CBT which gives me a fairly broad use of skills and ways to help you.
If you have any questions about the therapy I offer then please contact me.
I am also a trained Counselling Supervisor and able to take on counsellors seeking supervision.

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.
