About me
Thank you for visiting my profile page.
Do you struggle to feel truly heard or understood? I offer counselling in a safe, supportive, confidential and non-judgemental space to give you the opportunity to explore and understand yourself.
My work supports people who may be struggling with the impact of trauma, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, grief and loss, low self-esteem and more.
Whatever you wish to discuss, I offer compassion and empathy and by working with me you can expect a deeper understanding of yourself and the support you need to bring about the positive change you may be looking for.
I work in Poole on a Thursday afternoon and evening and Dorchester more flexibly across the week.

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.
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.

Further information
I offer a free of charge initial session to give you the opportunity to share why you would like therapy at this time. I am happy to accommodate this face to face or online, followed by face to face counselling sessions.
For me, the emphasis of therapy is on the relationship between us, so this is your opportunity to decide if you want to work with me and if we are a good fit to work together. It will also give you the opportunity to discuss any fears or worries you may have about therapy.
I work face to face in Poole town centre or Poundbury, Dorchester.
I am a fully insured counsellor and hold full public liability insurance and I hold an enhanced DBS with barred list check.
