Counsellor Profile

I have been in practice since the late 1990's.

I have practiced extensive 1-2-1 psychotherapy and counselling. I also facilitate Therapy Groups.

I am a Supervisor to Qualified and Student Therapist.

I work mainly in private practice. I have also worked as a therapist for an NHS and Local Authority provision of therapeutic services.

I am a Tutor at the Minster Centre in London which provides training in Psychotherapy and Counselling.

In my private practice I offer long-term psychotherapy and counselling on an open ended basis. I also offer short term exploratory engagements of two to six months.

Counselling and Psychotherapy are in many respects interchangeable words. I believe that they both provide the opportunity to create an understanding of ourselves which is hard to achieve in other environments. Through therapy there is the possibility of arriving at a greater understanding of why we are the way we are and also why we find ourselves in situations that can distress us and how we may change this.

Therapy can also be useful in looking at specific issues and trying to see if a way can be found to work through these without necessarily looking at greater depth.

I engage in 'talking' therapy. A common misconception is that the therapist has the solution in terms of how you can be and can instruct you. I see my role as helping you uncover your own feelings, thoughts, answers and solutions through a process of therapeutic engagement. Sometimes advice can be given, but what really makes a difference to us all is to change those things that stop us from making our own discoveries and choices, after all you are unique.

The therapeutic engagement is in part listening, understanding, reflecting, challenging, and working together to unravel thoughts and feelings that can often feel stuck or in a muddle.

If you want to find out more please do contact me.
