About me

Hello and welcome.  

Reaching out for counselling can feel like a big step, and you might be coming here feeling overwhelmed, stuck, anxious, or simply needing a space where you can talk openly. Whatever has brought you here, you are very welcome.

I offer Person-Centred counselling, which means our sessions focus on you, your experiences, your feelings, and what matters most in your life. I believe that each person has the capacity for growth and change when they are given the right environment: one that is safe, supportive, and free from judgement.

My aim is to provide a warm and compassionate space where you can explore whatever is on your mind at your own pace. You won’t be told what to do or judged for how you feel. Instead, I will walk alongside you, listening carefully and helping you understand yourself more deeply so that you can move towards the changes you want in your life.

People come to counselling for many different reasons. You might be struggling with anxiety, low mood, stress, relationship difficulties, life changes, or simply feeling lost or disconnected. Sometimes there isn’t a clear reason at all, just a sense that things don’t feel quite right. All of these experiences are valid and worth exploring.

I work in a collaborative way, building a trusting relationship where you can feel heard, understood, and accepted just as you are. Many people find that having a space dedicated entirely to them can bring clarity, relief, and a greater sense of self-understanding.

I offer counselling online and in person, providing a calm and confidential space where you can talk freely about whatever feels important to you.

If you are considering counselling and wondering whether it might help, you are very welcome to get in touch. We can arrange an initial conversation to see if working together feels right for you.

You don’t have to face things alone.

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

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).
