About me

Hello and welcome, I am Stacey, 

Are you feeling overwhelmed by anxiety or weighed down by depression? Do you find yourself struggling to navigate the twists and turns of life, especially as a woman facing unique challenges and expectations? You’re not alone—and you don’t have to face these feelings by yourself.

I specialise in supporting women who are experiencing anxiety, depression, and the complexities of modern life. My approach is warm, compassionate, and non-judgmental, creating a safe space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings openly.

Together, we’ll work to understand the root causes of your struggles, develop practical coping strategies, and build your confidence to move forward.

Whether you’re dealing with stress, low self-esteem, relationship issues, or simply feeling lost, I’m here to help you find clarity and resilience.

My goal is to empower you to rediscover your strengths and create a life that feels meaningful and fulfilling.

If you’re ready to take the first step towards healing and self-discovery, I invite you to reach out. Let’s work together to help you feel more balanced, hopeful, and in control of your journey.

I offer a free 15 minute telephone consultation to decide whether I’m the right counsellor for you, send me a text or email and we can have a quick chat to decide the next steps.

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

British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
Accredited Register Scheme

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.
