About me
I am a Humanistic Integrative psychotherapist with 18 years’ experience in the public / NHS sector and in private practice. I work with individuals and couples, often cross-cultural couples.
I specialise in working with anxiety, depression, relationships, addiction and in couple therapy. However, my expertise includes many other issues, and I am happy to help with those listed below. I also offer coaching, having come from a professional services background.
I am approachable and transparent in the way I work. As an Integrative Psychotherapist, I tailor my theoretical approach to your individual needs.
We can work short-term on a specific issue or long-term, depending on what is appropriate.
At any point in time, you can be sure that I am committed to helping you:
- enhance your well-being
- improve relationships
- make changes

Accredited and registered Member of BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy)
Member organisations
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
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.
