Hi, I’m Steph. Accessing counselling is not always easy and yet you have made it here. Welcome and thank you for taking the time to read my profile.

You may be seeking counselling due to stress, anxiety, depression, perhaps you feel a little lost or out of sorts. You could be seeking counselling for self-discovery or a desire to explore who you are. The reasons are endless and so unique to you as an individual. Therefore, I offer an initial phone call so we can determine what you’d like to get from counselling and whether I’m best suited to support you with this.

I’m a qualified therapeutic counsellor and a registered member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists (BACP). The BACP Ethical Framework underpins all my work and ensures that I’m working safely, ethically and in your best interest.

The way in which I work is from a person-centred core. This means that our work will be ultimately collaborative. I won’t offer you advice on how to get out of a dark cave but I will come and sit in there with you. As everyone is so unique I work integratively and have training in but not exclusive to Transactional Analysis and Attachment, I enjoy working creatively in a Trauma informed way. With these tools we can see what resonates with you and your story. We can find a candle to bring some light in.

I have experience in working in mental health support in a variety of settings as well as working in a community-based charity alongside my private practice. I have a real passion to offer people a space to feel heard, seen and listened to without judgement.
