About me
After 15 years of teaching, I decided to take my passion for pastoral care further and become a qualified counsellor. I work from a person-centered perspective but draw upon other modalities where appropriate to provide an individual approach.
I aim to provide a safe, welcoming and gentle space where you can express your thoughts and feelings in a completely confidential environment.
Training, qualifications & experience
I trained with BACP and passed my Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling. In order to provide the best possible support, I continue to seek professional development through reading and further training.
My most recent training enabled me to work with teenagers who had suffered a bereavement. I also use these skills to support St Michaels Hospice as one of their bereavement counsellors.
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.
