About me and my therapy practice
Hello - I am a fully qualified and insured BACP registered psychotherapist and counsellor who works with adults with a wide range of difficulties including depression, relationship problems, self-esteem and childhood issues - in the strictest confidence.
I have worked with adults in NHS primary care, young people in the charitable sector and older adults in long-term care. I am registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and am a graduate member of the British Psychological Society. I am also a member of the British Psychological Society's Media Ethics Advisory Group.
I trained over seven years at leading universities in the field and was awarded a masters degree with Distinction in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy as well as a First-Class degree in Applied Psychology.
Practice description
I primarily work with adults over 18 years old. I am an integrative relational therapist which means that I draw on different theoretical models but am very much guided by how we relate to ourselves, to others and the world around us.
As a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), I am committed to ongoing CPD (Continuing Professional Development) and supervision of my clinical practice. I also abide by the BACP's 'Ethical Framework for the Counselling Professions'.
My first session
Following an initial 30 minute consultation to determine if we are a good 'fit' we would agree an initial schedule of sessions - usually 8 - 12 weeks - after which we can discuss the option of further sessions. Each session lasts 50 minutes during which time I will help you to express and explore your concerns and we will work together towards meaningful change.
