About me

I am an integrative psychotherapist/counsellor working with Person Centred, CBT and Humanistic therapies. I have worked over 30 years in the NHS and Paramedic emergency services. I currently work in private practice with adults and older teenagers 16+. I am a registered member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy.

Do you suffer from anxiety, depression, loss, unresolved anger, or perhaps low self-esteem? Are you feeling stuck, unable to move in the direction you want, and finding it difficult to understand why? Are you experiencing mid-life changes, the perimenopause, menopause and andropause (Male menopause) which can have a significant effect on how you are feeling? Are you finding family and relationships challenging?

Whatever brings you to counselling, we can explore it together to find meaning, understanding and a path forward. I offer a safe, non-judgemental space where you will feel accepted and understood. Given the right conditions, we all have an enormous capacity for change and personal growth through the development of deeper insight and self-awareness. 

People like you, who come to see me might be experiencing thoughts, feelings, behaviours, or situations they find difficult to understand or manage. Counselling allows us to create a space where you can be supported to take stock and explore how circumstances have affected you. It can help you better understand yourself by shifting the lenses with which you view yourself and your life and what is important to you, developing new insights, self-acceptance, and personal growth.

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.

Further information

  • Integrative – this therapeutic approach involves selecting and combining techniques best suited to a client's particular problem e.g., Person Centred and CBT.
  • Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) - this approach looks at how your thoughts affect your feeling and how this then affects your behaviour. (This approach is recommended by NICE guidelines for depression).
  • Person Centred - this therapy helps you to get in touch with your feelings and can be powerful in helping with self-development and understanding yourself, working through your issues.
  • Humanistic – this approach is about self-exploration, free will, self-discovery and achieving your full potential as a human being.
