About me
I offer one-to-one therapy for adults from a quiet, comfortable room in confidential settings in Archway, North London. I also offer online/phone sessions.
As an integrative, relational psychotherapist, I combine different counselling and psychotherapy approaches to ensure that I can work in the most effective way, helping you in the way that suits you best. Since individuals think, feel and behave in different ways, it feels important to work with clients in individual ways too.
This may mean that we explore your patterns of behaviour and how you relate to others, this could mean looking at your childhood, the ways you learnt to behave. Doing this can help us to understand why you may do something in a certain way and how we can work on doing it in a different way.
It may also mean that we help you to identify practical approaches which can help you in making changes in your everyday life. Adapting how you think about something perhaps, so you no longer see it in a negative light, or it may be learning new ways to respond or react to others or giving you new skills to help you deal with events.
We will do all this together, working at a pace that feels right for you. In a non-judgemental space in which I hope you will feel comfortable and able to talk about anything which is important to you.
Training, qualifications & experience
I trained at the Minster Centre, London, gaining a Diploma in 2013 and an MA in Integrative Psychotherapy in 2015. I also have a Diploma in Schools & Adolescent Counselling from the Metanoia Institute, London.
I began working in private practice in 2014 and have several years’ experience working with a range of clients in a variety of settings including charitable organisations and training institutions. I continue to provide low and no-cost therapy, providing short and medium-term counselling alongside my long-term private client work.
I am a registered member of the UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP). I abide by the UKCP Code of Ethics and Professional Practice in Psychotherapy, and my work adheres to their strict professional standards
As a member of UKCP, I ensure I am kept up to date with new areas of research and training within the field. I am committed to my own professional development and continue to study and take additional courses which interest me as part of my CPD (Continuing Professional Development).
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).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.

Additional information
Fees for the first session are £40. After that, if you decide to continue, my fees are £85 per session. All sessions last for 50 minutes and you will normally come once a week.
I offer a small number of reduced fee places to those on low or no income. Please contact me if you feel this might apply to you.
The first meeting will provide an opportunity for you to get a feel for what it would be like working with me and whether counselling is right for you. During this session, we will also talk about how the sessions will work and you will have the opportunity to ask questions about what counselling is about, what your expectations may be, and any anxieties you have. We will also be able to discuss practicalities such as times to meet, holidays and missed sessions.
