About me
I am a fully qualified and experienced psychotherapy and counselling practitioner in individual adult therapy and couples therapy based in London WC1 and Rochester ME1.
I am able to assist with relationship issues, depression, anger, self esteem, sex related issues, trauma, and bereavement to name but a few. I have many years of experience of providing therapy online.
I am a member of the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) and the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP).
I am also a founding partner of Sail to Clarity (www.sailtoclarity.com) that runs personal and professional development workshops and trainings on a modern boat on the River Medway.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have trained in humanistic integrative counselling at CPPD and in integrative psychotherapy and counselling at Regents College, London. I hold an Advanced Diploma in Existential Psychotherapy from Regents College, and a Masters in Psychotherapy & Counselling from the University of Wales.
I have previously worked at Mind and the Medical Foundation for the Victims of Torture.
Member organisations
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)
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
Accredited Register Scheme
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.
