About me
I am a psychoanalytic psychotherapist and Group Analyst registered with the UKCP and IGA working as a Principal Adult Psychotherapist in the NHS on a part time basis and also in private practice.
I have over 24 years of experience working within counselling and psychotherapy services in the field of addiction, mental health and for the last 19 years in a NHS specialist complex trauma psychotherapy service.

I am especially used to working with complex trauma, relationship and sexual issues, abuse, neglect, anxiety, depression, loss, anger and personality struggles.
