About me
I’ve been on both sides of the counselling room, so I know how tough it can be just getting started, but I believe by working collaboratively, you can get what you need from therapy. You don’t have to have all the answers, you just have to turn up, and be willing to talk things through. I want to get to know you, and understand your story, to figure out how I can help you work through whatever you’re dealing with.
That’s why I’m here; to listen to you and create a space that’s all about you. Whether you’re looking for a place to talk through challenges, want to feel heard, or just need to vent, our sessions are designed to help you feel safe and comfortable. I tailor our sessions to fit your needs, with an empathetic approach. This work is all about you.
I’m fascinated by people; I wouldn’t be here if I wasn’t. I became a therapist because I care about people’s mental health & well-being, and appreciate the chance to help people, wherever they are on their journey. I can support you in managing daily challenges, building healthier relationships, and coming to terms with your own mind.
I trained in psychodynamic counselling, but take an integrative approach, with elements of humanistic and person-centred work.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have a diploma in Psychodynamic Counselling as well as a BA (Hons) degree in Psychology & Counselling. I've worked with a variety of clients, both young people and adults, for a number of years.
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.
