About me

I am a counsellor and psychotherapist based in South West London (Wimbledon, Kingston, Wandsworh and Putney areas). I specialise in:

  • anxiety,
  • anger management,
  • bereavement,
  • couple's issues,
  • cross cultural relationships,
  • depression,
  • eating disorders,
  • family issues,
  • obsessive compulsive disorder,
  • stress,
  • relationship issues,
  • redundancy,
  • panic attacks,
  • separation & divorce and
  • self esteem.

My aim is to increase the capacity for choice in an individual and help develop self confidence and independence. Potential benefits for clients include, better relationships, freedom from disruptive thinking, less worry, more energy, more choice and self-confidence. I offer discreet, sensitive, confidential one to one counselling and psychotherapy sessions, using Client Centred skills, Psychodynamic Therapy as well as Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT). Over the past several years I have helped people with many different issues across multiple counselling centres in South West London.

Training, qualifications & experience

I have an MA in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy. I am also a registered member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I abide by the BACP code of conduct and ethical requirements for professional practice.

Member organisations

BACP
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

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).
