About me
I am a UKCP registered Gestalt Psychotherapist, working in private practice. I have over 14 years experience with a wide range of clients, including work with Cruse Bereavement Care, Birmingham Women’s Aid, Primrose Hospice, and in private practice. My practice is trauma-informed, safe and relational.
From March 2020 I am offering online or telephone therapy only.
My approach is to offer a supportive space where I listen to what you bring, and together we explore possibilities of moving forward in new ways. As a Gestalt therapist, I view every individual as the best expert on themselves, and as having the capacity to live a satisfying life in rewarding contact with others. When this natural state gets interrupted, we can get stuck in fixed patterns. By bringing these patterns into awareness, we can explore creative ways of addressing the problems you are facing.

Member organisations
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) is a leading professional body for the education, training and regulation of psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors. Its register is accredited by the government's Professional Standards Authority.
As part of its commitment to protect the public, it works to improve access to psychotherapy, to support and disseminate research, to improve standards and to respond effectively to complaints against its members.
UKCP standards cover the range of different psychotherapies. Registration is obtained by training or accrediting with one of its member organisations, or by holding a European Certificate in Psychotherapy. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
