About me

Sometimes we need more than a journal, a pet or a friend to talk to. Sometimes we need someone who is experienced and can help us walk us through the depths of our pain.

Whether you're feeling lost, Isolated, anxious or depressed. Or struggling with relationship dynamics, stress, childhood trauma, bereavement, shame, regret or anger. 

I’m here to help.

My professional and compassionate service offers you a safe, trusting, and hopeful space to explore your emotions, feelings, and experiences. Whether you need help with personal challenges, relationship issues, or mental health concerns, I can help you find new and meaningful ways to grow and heal. 

Who am I?

I’m Tina, a BACP registered Integrative Therapist providing online, phone, and in-person sessions. I’m dedicated to helping people heal and restore, fostering an environment where they can feel accepted to embrace their authenticity and overcome emotional, mental, and physical challenges.

As an Integrative counsellor, I believe each person is unique and requires a tailored approach that suits their needs and goals. I am trained in and draw from various theoretical models, such as person-centred, cognitive-behavioural (CBT), and psychodynamic to provide you with holistic and compassionate therapy.

I also offer embodied somatic approaches and creative practices in the work, believing that our bodies can reveal valuable insights into our psyche. These methods can help you access and express your emotions, sensations, and memories in ways that talking therapy may not always capture.

I aim to provide inclusive, neurodiversity-affirming, disability-affirming, culturally competent, and culturally responsive care and services for people of all sexual orientations and gender identities.

Each session is £50 for 50 minutes and you can choose to have it in person, online, phone or walk and talk.

If you are interested in working with me, please get in touch to arrange a free consultation. This will help us determine if we are a good fit for each other and allow me to understand how I can best support you.

Training, qualifications & experience

I have a wealth of experience spanning the NHS, voluntary, community and charitable sectors, with a steadfast commitment to working with and addressing mental health challenges. Within my experience I have worked seamlessly across diverse groups, employing a nuanced approach to meet individual needs, empowering people to achieve their full potential and improve their well-being through evidence-based interventions and collaborative partnerships.

Member organisations

BACP
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.
