About my work
My experience began with managing a Community Mental Health Home in Surbiton for four years and then the Star and Garter Home in Richmond Hill for eight years as part of the medical team.

In 1994 I took over the running of the Richmond Counselling and Psychotherapy Service. My role is to supervise the therapists, interview therapists for placements, deal with the finances and hold an initial meeting with new clients.

My intention
My intention is to provide a confidential and accessible psychological intervention at an affordable rate. I like to integrate various theoretical approaches. Originally using transpersonal and humanistic broadly exploratory talking therapy and lately some focused work. I like integrating the findings in neuropsychology and relational psychology to my work.

What is therapy?
Oxshott Therapy Room
Therapy is a place where you unravel and try to make sense of what feels overwhelming or puzzling to you.

Coronavirus – changes in the way we are working
In light of the Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak affecting many people in many ways, we are taking the necessary steps to protect both our clients and ourselves, by conducting all counselling and psychotherapy sessions via telephone, video calls and more recently in person.
