About me
I have been working as a therapist now for over 15 years and have a particular interest in working with couples.
Difficulties in our essential, intimate relationships are some of the most causes of unhappiness in our lives. This can lead to feelings of anxiety, depression and Our sense of self worth is affected and often our health can suffer.
Therapy can help you and your partner to understand the conflict in your relationship and help develop new skills in overcoming destructive patterns of relating to one another.
I welcome all couples and am passionate about the value of relationship therapy in facilitating better communication and intimacy. I am a member of the Couples Inner Circle based in America where I am able to attend trainings and share ideas with other relationship therapists around the world, enabling me to continuously update the way I work. I have recently integrated EFT and RLT methods into my approach and am passionate about sharing these with my couples.
It is important to find a therapist that both you and your partner feel comfortable with and I am happy to meet for a free half hour session to discuss the therapy on offer and answer any questions you have.

Member organisations
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.
