Dip Psych/Couns, Supervisor MBACP

About me

Hello, I am a fully qualified Psychotherapist, Counsellor and Clinical Supervisor. I have over 10 years of experience working with clients. Coping tools will help ease the symptoms, and the therapeutic relationship will provide the personal growth and necessary changes you want for a calmer, more empowered life. 

 I offer a safe and trusting space, where we can explore all aspects of your life that may be troubling you, and all the parts of yourself you may be struggling with. I have extensive experience working with trauma, loss, anxiety, depression, low self esteem and identity.  Therapy is not about fixing, but more about engaging in a process of understanding what events have shaped you. Working with narratives that no longer serve you. Working with patterns of behaviour. Reflecting on life to bring more meaning going forward. There is so much available online regarding mental heath, some good tools and advice. However we aren’t built to navigate life alone. Therapy offers a relationship and a safe space to be heard and together we find ways through.

I have worked extensively with trauma over the years, and feel passionately about the worst times of life not dictating how the rest of it goes. Therapy can heal wounds.

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.

Key details

DBS check

In England and Wales, the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS, formerly known as CRB) carry out criminal records checks for individuals working with vulnerable groups, such as children. To find out more, visit gov.uk , or contact this professional directly

Wheelchair user access
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.

I work from two establishments. Bank House Studio is on the ground floor with good access for anyone with mobility difficulties, and a large space. The therapy room in Humble Heart is up 3 flights of stairs. A very calm, quiet and beautiful space.
