About me
Hello and welcome to my page.
I'm Tammy and I'm a warm, friendly and compassionate counsellor based in Liverpool. I work with adults who may be experiencing issues related to abandonment, loneliness and insecurity, abuse, anxiety and or worry, depression, low mood and feeling sad, inner child wounds and childhood issues, low self-esteem and building self-confidence, relationships problems and or family issues, stress, anger, burnout and overwhelm.
Seeking counselling and asking for support can feel really scary, but it also shows me you have strength and courage and something needs to change.
I tailor therapy to suit the needs of you, because a “one size" does not fit all. By using an infusion of person centred, psychodynamic, cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT), inner child work and hypnotherapy, allows me the opportunity and flexibility to promote healing from a mental, physical and emotional perspective.
I have been in that confusing place - wanting help yet unsure what that looks like or where to find it. I was scared to do it on my own and made a choice to start counselling. Feeling those uncomfortable emotions was something I needed to do in order to feel better.
Our physical health is considered more of a priority and it feels easier to visit a dentist for toothache or a doctor for a sore foot. There is still a stigma attached to counselling and I really want to change that. I am very passionate about counselling as it can really support your mental health and wellbeing. It can also help you to understand of yourself, feel lighter, calmer and more in control.
My counselling approach
Sessions may involve talking through specific issues or you might want to have more general discussions about how you're feeling. I may offer information and suggestions, but I will not tell you what you should think or do.

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.

The Therapeutic Relationship
Being able to talk to me openly and honesty about your thoughts, feelings and struggles is all part of building our therapeutic relationship. The relationship between client and counsellor is very unique, rewarding and an important one.
In-Person Benefits
While I offer virtual counselling, immense value comes from in-person sessions. Traveling to and from a dedicated space allows you time and space to reflect. Releasing emotions in a calming environment can leave you feeling refreshed and lighter. My intention is to provide a warm, comfortable space for your self-care.
