About me
Welcome! It takes courage to reach out for help, and I want you to know you're not alone. Life can throw some curveballs, and sometimes we all need a safe space to explore what's going on. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or simply seeking personal growth, I'm here to listen and support you.
My name is Steffi, and I'm a qualified integrative counsellor/psychotherapist. I offer a safe space where you can freely explore your thoughts and feelings, without fear of judgment. My approach is integrative, which means I can adopt a variety of approaches to suit your specific needs and preferences.
Starting counselling can feel daunting, and that's perfectly normal. It's really important that you feel comfortable with the counsellor you choose, it has to fit well with you. That's why I offer a reduced-rate initial session so we can explore if working together feels like a good fit for you.
If you are ready to take the next step, then get in touch to set up an initial session. This is your chance to ask questions, get a feel for my approach, and see if we would be a good fit. If you decide you'd like us to work together we will set up regular sessions at a time that works and begin our work together.
I warmly welcome people from all walks of life and look forward to hearing from you.
Training, qualifications & experience
Inspired by both my own positive experience with counselling and my time working in crisis support for MIND, lead me towards a more active role in helping people, and obtaining my qualification as a Counsellor/Psychotherapist.
I work in an integrative way, from a person-centred, relational core. This means I prioritise creating a trusting, empathic relationship where you feel heard and empowered. I then integrate a blend of theoretical approaches, Psychodynamic, Transactional Analysis and CBT in my model. Using a variety of therapeutic techniques to help understand your concerns, but you are the expert in knowing what’s best for you. You may just need a bit of support and guidance to help you find your solutions.
My experience working with diverse clients facing a range of issues – sight loss, grief, miscarriage, trauma, anxiety, depression, sexual/emotional/physical abuse, self-esteem, bullying, body image, neurodiversity and relationship challenges – allows me to create a safe and supportive space for individuals of all backgrounds. You can expect a dedicated professional who is warm, calm, approachable, and above all else, a good listener.

- CPCAB Level 5 Diploma in Psychotherapeutic Counselling (In progress)
- CPCAB Level 4 Diploma in Humanistic Integrative Therapeutic Counselling
- CPCAB Level 3 Certificate in Counselling Studies

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.
