About me
I consider myself to be a warm, compassionate and honest therapist who is commited to work with my clients to achieve their goals and address the issues that may be making thier lives challenging. I offer my clients a safe and confidential space to enable them to be heard and valued and promote change by exploring how their thinking may be impacting on thier feelings and behaviour, and how the past may be influencing the present. I aim to assist my clients in developing their own 'toolkit' of strategies to help them cope with the stresses that life presents.

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 have volunteered as a counsellor supporting Carers and have learned how the complexities of this demanding and challenging role can impact on Carers lives. I feel that this has offered me a great insight on supporting this client group.
