About me


 Relationships make us and relationships break us, whether it’s the one we have with ourselves or others.  As a psychotherapist and Supervisor relationship is at the heart of what I offer.   Psychotherapy offers a space to explore and nurture a healthier way of being. You and your well being will be at the very centre of our work.  I will offer a warm, nonjudgemental, professional space for us to work in.

 I have experience of working with many areas of mental health including addiction, anxiety, depression, disordered eating, relationship challenges, bereavement and other mental health challenges.  I have worked with people of all ages from young people in a school setting, to vulnerable adults struggling with addiction.

I am integratively trained,  which means I can offer a variety of therapeutic approaches (including Transactional Analysis, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness, and Psychotherapeutic Therapy).

I feel passionately finding the right therapist is really important, so I offer a free consultation session for you and I to explore if we are a good fit for each other. 

"There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.” ..Hamlet .

Therapy can be challenging inspiring and perspective altering and therefore life changing.

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.

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).
