Profile
I work part time for the NHS as a Psychotherapist / Psychologist, and also see a number of clients in private practice.
Many people benefit from Psychotherapy/Counselling. To give you an idea, I regularly work with clients experiencing stress, anxiety or depression. Some are working through life crises, coming to terms with loss, have suffered abuse, or are going through relationship problems. Others have felt stuck in old patterns they would like to change or are simply keen to understand themselves better and fulfil their potential.
Psychotherapy/Counselling provides the backdrop to my practice, which at its core is about helping you to understand and make sense of your life. It’s about better understanding what is taking place, and making sense of experience. It involves a sometimes painful process of facing-up to those things that are ordinarily avoided and evaded. It's also about realising the choices you have and how you would like your life to be.
Examples of specific client groups with whom I've worked include: cancer patients (NHS, Mayday Hospital), men wishing to change abusive behaviour (Everyman Project), young children/families (NHS, Child & Adolescent Mental Health service (CAMHs)), and clients with neurological impairments (NHS, Disabled Adult Resource Team (DART)).
Training, Qualifications & Experience
My background includes training in Existential Psychotherapy, Counselling Psychology, Clinical Hypnotherapy, and Brief Strategic Therapy. In practise this means I can offer an integrative approach to therapy tailored to each client's individual needs.
