About me
Many years ago I made a decision to become a Psychotherapist after having a good experience of therapy myself. I am now a qualified Certified Transactional Analyst Psychotherapist - CTA (P) with over 10 years experience. I am committed to providing Counselling & Psychotherapy in a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space in Falmouth, where people can discuss their problems and difficulties and decide what they want to change or consider how to cope with the things they can’t.
People seek counselling or psychotherapy for many reasons; sometimes life can be confusing and frustrating, it can feel pointless or scary. They may be experiencing difficult times in their lives or feelings of anxiety, depression or stuck in situations that feel beyond their control. They may be troubled by past experiences or feelings of being unable to cope. Some people enter into therapy because they simply feel unhappy in themselves or puzzled by life.
As an experienced practitioner I believe that we all have the capacity to enjoy good mental health and well-being. I am confident and experienced in working with a broad spectrum of presenting issues and feel privileged to have worked with many clients on a short term and long term basis depending on their individual needs.
However big or small your problems are, exploring them with a trained therapist can assist you in developing options for change and moving forward in a way that changes or enhances your life. I am here to help you feel better in how you live your life.

Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
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.

The UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) is a leading professional body for the education, training and regulation of psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors. Its register is accredited by the government's Professional Standards Authority.
As part of its commitment to protect the public, it works to improve access to psychotherapy, to support and disseminate research, to improve standards and to respond effectively to complaints against its members.
UKCP standards cover the range of different psychotherapies. Registration is obtained by training or accrediting with one of its member organisations, or by holding a European Certificate in Psychotherapy. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.

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.
