Training and qualifications

I hold a Diploma in Counselling Practice and am trained in Applied Suicide Intervention Skills Training (ASIST). My extensive experience in bereavement support includes many years volunteering with Cruse Bereavement Care, as well as nearly two years coordinating a local bereavement support group. I also volunteer as a Grief Supporter for Mid & North Powys Mind, providing remote support to clients coping with grief and loss. I am a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), and I strictly adhere to their Ethical Framework, ensuring an ethical and person-centred practice. Inclusive Practice I am dedicated to improving access to counselling for LGBTQ+ clients, and I take pride in providing an inclusive practice that welcomes individuals of all gender identities and sexual orientations. My aim is to offer a supportive and affirming counselling experience for LGBTQ+ clients. Core Messages within my Practice • “You don’t have to carry it alone.” • “Grief speaks in many ways. I’m here to listen.” • “Together, we’ll find a way through.” • “Whatever you’re feeling, it matters.” • “A quiet space to talk, feel, and begin again.” I provide Person-Centred counselling, drawing from a Humanistic framework. My approach is also pluralistic—I understand that each client may need different therapeutic methods at different stages of their journey. I prioritise your viewpoint, work collaboratively, and customise therapy to fit your unique needs, acknowledging you as the expert of your own life while using my expertise to support you effectively. I am dedicated to truly listening, helping you make sense of your experiences, and offering stability during uncertain periods. We will explore whatever matters most to you, always moving at your pace and in ways that feel comfortable for you. When working with loss and bereavement, I frequently draw on grief models and analogies to help clients understand that their emotions are a natural response to loss. There is no single ‘right’ way to grieve—only your way. Whatever challenges bring you to counselling, I offer a safe and confidential space to talk, reflect, and begin to understand your feelings. Together, we’ll gently navigate a path forward, taking each step at your pace and following the direction you choose. I bring warmth, empathy, and quiet strength to my work, offering genuine, down-to-earth support and gentle challenge where needed. My aim is to meet you where you are and to walk alongside you as you find your way forward.
