About me

I am a qualified and experienced psychotherapist and supervisor working with adults from a tranquil location in Rickmansworth and online.

I have experience in working with adults suffering from anxiety, depression, anger management issues, stress and other aspects of emotional well-being. Most human beings find that at times life can be difficult, perplexing and lacking a sense of purpose and direction. People can feel angry, suffer from anxiety, and depression or have relationship and family issues. Psychotherapy will offer no quick and easy solutions but it can provide an opportunity to confidentially discuss painful feelings, thoughts and emotions.

It is not an easy decision to come to see a therapist as it is a process which requires a commitment of time and effort from both parties. As a therapist I cannot give you the answers - the purpose and goal is to help you to find your own answers, to help you better understand yourself, and by doing so hopefully better understand your relationship to the world in which we all live.

I believe it is possible for individuals to make changes to themselves, how they view the world and how they see themselves in the world. Psychotherapy can enable people to develop a better sense of realism, of self-worth and inner strength.

I seek to create a safe and containing space where issues and problems, sometimes painful and deeply buried, can be given a chance to be explored and faced. By uncovering and acknowledging these issues it is often possible to make clearer and more realistic decisions about your life.

Training, qualifications & experience

I am a registered member of the UKCP. I have completed extensive training in psychoanalytical psychotherapy with The Association of Independent Psychotherapists. I also hold a WPF Diploma in Psychodynamic counselling, and I have experience in working with adults suffering from anxiety, bereavement, depression, anger management issues, relationship issues, workplace difficulties and stress. I am also a qualified and experienced supervisor and a member of the British Association of Psychoanalytic and Psychodynamic Supervisors. (BAPPS)

I have also worked at several counselling agencies, managing a counselling charity for 4 years, and have worked with children in a primary school.
