About me
Welcome to Orque Counselling Services. I am an Integrative Counselling Practitioner, with a BSc in Psychology and FdSc in Integrative Counselling Practice. I have experience working with people from a range of different backgrounds, disabilities, neurodiversity and ASD. I have worked with clients facing challenges in their lives such as depression, anxiety, bereavement, self-esteem, relationship issues, sexuality, and trauma.
I aim to create a therapeutically safe environment where you can open up and talk about the life challenges you are facing, free from judgement. I believe in a holistic approach to therapy, encompassing a personal blend of humanistic, cognitive behavioural and psychodynamic approaches to best suit individual needs.

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.
