About me
I am a UKCP and BACP registered psychotherapist/counsellor, EMDR therapist and clinical supervisor. I work with individuals and couples. My areas of expertise include anxiety, depression, relationship issues, low self esteem, addictions, eating disorders, bereavement and spiritual guidance. I offer psychotherapy and counselling in Hampstead NW3, Kings Cross WC1 and Harley Street W1.
My Approach
I work with deep empathy to help you better understand and find a way through any emotional or psychological issues you are facing. I offer a warm, relational and creative space for exploration and draw on a range of therapeutic approaches. How we work together always depends on the outcomes you want from the therapy or counselling sessions and what feels most beneficial and useful for you. I have particular expertise in working creatively, with dreams and incorporating body-based approaches.

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.
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred).
Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision.
Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training.
All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
