Counsellor Profile

Some people have specific issues on which they want to focus. Others may be feeling anxious or depressed or have a general dissatisfaction with life without necessarily knowing why. I may be able to help you to make sense of things which trouble you, identify changes you wish to make in your life and provide support for you during this period of change.
I provide a safe, confidential environment in which you can explore any issues which concern you. This can result in you gaining a new understanding of yourself and your problems which may help you to move forward.
My interest in counselling and psychotherapy developed from several courses I took to help me use counselling skills in my previous job. I decided to change career as I realised that this type of work would be more fulfilling for me.

Training, Qualifications & Experience (more info)

I trained for five years at the Minster Centre, N.W. London and qualified with a Diploma and M.A. in Integrative Psychotherapy in 2002. I obtained a Diploma in Supervision at the Minster Centre in 2008. I believe that it is important to continue to learn and I attend a range of courses, seminars and conferences as part of my Continuing Professional Development.
As well as my private practice, I have experience of working in psychotherapy in the NHS and of counselling young people in an agency. I am a BACP Registered Counsellor, a UKRC Registered Independent Counsellor and a UKCP Registered Psychotherapist.
