ABOUT
Hello, my name is Becky, and I am a fully qualified Humanistic and Integrative Therapist, registered with the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I have been practising as a therapist since 2020, with several years of experience supporting individuals through some of life’s most challenging and painful moments.
I hold a BSc (Hons) in Counselling and Psychotherapy, which I completed at the Sherwood Psychotherapy Training Institute in Nottingham. I began working in practice in 2018, alongside my studies, gaining valuable experience within a range of charities and organisations as well as in private practice. These settings have allowed me to work with people from diverse backgrounds, each bringing their own unique story, struggles, and strengths.
I have extensive experience working with trauma, including sexual abuse and sexual violence, domestic abuse and violence, as well as mental health difficulties such as anxiety, depression, and stress. I also support clients experiencing bereavement, addiction and substance misuse, neurodiversity-related challenges, and the impact these issues can have on relationships, identity, and everyday life. I understand that reaching out for support can feel daunting, and I aim to offer a space where you feel safe, heard, and accepted without judgement.
My approach is humanistic and integrative, meaning I work collaboratively with you and tailor therapy to meet your individual needs. I believe that you are the expert in your own life, and my role is to support and empower you as you explore your experiences, make sense of what you are going through, and move towards meaningful and lasting change at your own pace.
I offer face-to-face, telephone, and online therapy, allowing flexibility to suit your circumstances. I provide both short-term and long-term therapy, depending on what feels most helpful for you. Sessions take place weekly and last 50 minutes.
I work with all ages. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply in need of a space to talk, you do not have to face things alone. I welcome you to get in touch and take the first step towards support.
My Approach
I believe that, at our core, we all long for meaningful connection and a secure base from which we can make sense of our experiences. It is within safe and supportive relationships that we are able to explore who we truly are, understand what has shaped us, and begin to live more authentically.
Through counselling, I aim to create a calm, safe, and confidential space where you can bring the whole of yourself into the room — your thoughts, feelings, questions, and uncertainties — without fear of judgement or criticism. Together, we can gently explore the challenges you may be facing, whether they are rooted in past experiences or present-day difficulties, always working at a pace that feels right for you.
My approach is grounded not only in professional training, but also in personal understanding. I know from my own life experience that life can be painful, overwhelming, and unpredictable at times. This understanding shapes my work and strengthens my commitment to helping others recognise their inherent worth, value, and resilience, even when it feels hard to see for themselves.
Reaching out for support can feel daunting, but needing help does not mean you are weak — it means you are human. Sometimes we all need a little extra support along the way, and that is not only okay, it can be an important and meaningful step towards healing and growth.
