About me
It may have felt like a big step to commence this journey to start counselling, I would like to help you on your journey with the ultimate reward of changing your life and the way you relate to yourself and others .
In our sessions we will explore current and past life situations in relation to your everyday experiences, we will work towards processing past thoughts and feelings which may still be influencing your life , as past experiences may have been held in suspension and even forgotten but could still be impacting you both mentally and physically influencing your present day life choices and well being .
This is because the unconscious part of your minds job is to keep you safe, it is constantly scanning situations and is ready to leap into action so as to protect you and keep you feeling mentally safe.
The past weaves a thread into present day situations , we will work towards understanding what belongs to where by identifying life patterns , we will make links between the past and present day. Compounded emotions can then start to be understood without the reaction loaded by all the baggage that they once held , a thinking mind stays active , even in times of stress whilst the automatic unconscious reaction becomes redundant. Conscious control allows for a space to think and to feel more calm and measured .
Working to suit your needs I will draw upon my continued professional training to give you tools to use when times may feel challenging and thoughts may feel stuck, confused or out of control. We will work together to allow a mental space to develop whereby reaction can start to slow down and actions can start to be thought about, allowing a thinking mind to remain helping you towards your felt life's different challenges.
At times you may experience an array of different emotions which may feel confusing, overwhelming or impossible to make sense of. Bringing these thoughts and feeling to session will enable us to explore in safety, allowing for a calm balanced way forward so that new understandings and awareness can start to create a more positive brighter future in all aspects of your life.

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.
