Franca Eto Umukoro

I’m an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I follow its Ethical Framework for the Counselling Professions and have regular clinical supervision, so you can be confident your care meets professional standards.

I work with adults, children, teenagers, couples and groups, in NHS, employee assistance programme (EAP), health insurance, organisational and private settings. I’m also a recognised BUPA provider of counselling and psychotherapy, including online and telephone sessions across the UK.
