About me
If you're reading this, chances are that you need some help and support with something that's going on in your life. I understand that feeling.
Maybe you're looking to make some sense of a specific situation; maybe you want to address something in your past and understand how it's affecting you now; perhaps you want to make changes in your life but feel stuck; or maybe you're simply looking for a place to be listened to and fully understood.
I'm Tim, a therapist and therapeutic coach, and I believe that the most meaningful and positive therapy is about looking at what needs attention in your life today, working out what belongs to the past, and learning techniques that can help you to move differently into the future, and into a happier and more confident life.
I know from experience that finding the right therapist really matters; the relationship you have with your therapist is unlike any other in your life, so if you're curious about working with me, let's have a no-pressure, initial conversation where you can ask questions, get a sense of how I work and decide whether it feels like a good fit.

I work with people from all kinds of backgrounds and stages of life, so if you think we might work well together, please do reach out and say hello.
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.
