About me
Are you suffering from low self esteem? Is anxiety and fear holding you back from meeting someone, finding a fulfilling career and enjoying life? You are not alone I can work with you in addressing limiting self beliefs and together we can unlock your full potential to living a happier and healthier life.
I offer a warm, confidential and non judgemental environment where we can explore what is going on for you. I have experience of working across all ages. Particularly 11-25 year Olds, as well as Survivors of narcissistic abuse and those wanting to recover from chronic fatigue syndrome and burnout.
Before becoming a counsellor I taught A level Psychology. I am passionate about using my knowledge of how our minds work so that you can use it to your advantage and have tools for living a more fulfilling life.
I also offer the use of creative tools and spiritual ideology if that's something that interests you.
Our first session
I know how hard taking the first step can be; you are not alone together we will work through what is going on for you. I can support you in making positive changes to your life; exploring where you are now and where you want to be.
My counselling approach
I am a fully qualified person centered counsellor. This means you as the client will lead the sessions and share what you feel comfortable with. Sessions are held on a weekly basis and can be on a short or long term basis, depending on your needs.
I am a member of the British counselling and psychotherapy association, which means I abide by a professional code of conduct to uphold and maintain ethical standards. I also hold a full DBS.
How to get started

Member organisations
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
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.
