About me
I offer face to face and online general counselling, as well as specialising in psychosexual and relationship counselling. I work with couples and individuals with range of general issues, such as anxiety and depression, as well as sexual, relationship, anger management, and other emotional issues. The last few years have placed enormous pressure on people for a variety of reasons, and individuals, couples and families have experienced a range of external pressures. We unravel together your unique situation, and I encourage and support you to set your own goals for the therapy, and explore solutions. I draw on a variety of interactive methods and techniques that I have learnt from my studies and practice over the years, and that have proved themselves useful to clients. The main theoretical models that you might recognise will be person-centred, psychodynamic, cognitive behavioural, and Gestalt. I can also teach Nonviolent Communication Skills to groups, individuals and family pairs and friendship pairs (e.g brother/sister, mother/daughter, two colleagues/friends who have fallen out).
I have been practicing for 20 years, including 2 years at Kings College Hospital as a member of their psychosexual counselling team, and I have a private practice, working face to face, and online. I am an Accredited Member of two professional bodies, BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy www.bacp.co.uk), and COSRT (College of Sexual and Relationship Therapy www.cosrt.org.uk), and abide by their Codes of Practice and Ethics. I am also an Independent Trainer with Nonviolent Communication UK (www.nvc-uk.com).
My aim in the therapy is to provide a safe and non-judgmental space for you to take stock of where you are at now, explore what factors from the past are influencing your current life, and what you need to understand, or come to terms with, in order to move into a happier and more balanced way of life. For those who want more help with communication skills, I can offer a range of handouts and self-help worksheets to enhance and practise the skills. I can also offer some Nonviolent Communication skills coaching.

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.
