About me
I am a therapeutic counsellor and a registered member of the BACP (British association for counselling practice). I am currently able to offer face to face, telephone or zoom sessions. My face to face practice is based in Winton, Bournemouth.
I like to work with clients who are willing to be open minded to the counselling process. I enjoy working with a wide range of issues and if a client has a goal in mind we can look to achieve this. On the other hand, if a client hasn't set goals it's an opportunity to look at what they want to achieve in counselling.
My counselling practice is based around the client and what they need and want from the process. I provide a safe, non-judgemental and confidential space.
I can help by using my skills to enable my clients to experience their thoughts and feelings in a tailored service as every client is unique and they deal with issues differently.
I have worked with many different types of issues from addiction, sexual abuse, stress, depression, anxiety, LGBTQ, children and young people and relationships.
It is key for the way I work to build trust so that you feel secure and at ease. There will be non judgment or advice and it's an opportunity for you to explore yourself and to grow your own self awareness. I will be there to help you along the journey.
If you struggle with feeling heard or don't feel you can share with anyone in your life, counselling may be for you.

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.
The National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society
This Not For Profit association of counsellors and psychotherapists aim to support the counselling profession, members and training organisations.
In 2013 the NCS register was accredited by the Professional Standards Authority under the Accredited Voluntary Register Scheme. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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.
