About me
I am a psychodynamic counsellor with over 10 years of experience. I also use a range of other methods- integrative, humanistic and CBT depending on your needs.
I work with individuals in a setting which allows you to delve into your childhood or early years to find the causes for any present negative feelings, behaviours and thoughts.
Pshychodynamic counselling involves recounting or discovering an individual’s personal history and how they interact with other family members and friends. This can be an extremely revealing and cathartic process for clients. It can lead to new insights and revelations about your current problems and hopefully provide answers and solutions.
I am particularly interested in helping you explore your early relationships which may have formed destructive patterns of behaviour.
My aim is to help you break out of old destructive patterns and identify more constructive ways of dealing with your problems. I aim to offer a secure, safe, non-judgemental and trusting environment for you to discuss these matters with a view to breaking out of negative patterns of behaviour and a deeper understanding of yourself.
Everyone at some point in their lives goes through difficult periods and needs someone to talk to. If you need to talk through a difficult issue in a secure and comfortable space please contact me using the details below.
I provide one-to-one and couples Counselling to adults in Stratford (London) and Woodford.
I have always provided both face to face and remote counselling, however, given the current COVID 19/Coronavirus health emergency I am able to provide remote counselling on various platforms such as Skype and Zoom. FaceTime is currently not possible as it is not secure/encrypted.

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.
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.
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.
