About me
As an integrative therapist, I aim to offer you a space from which we can observe your world together and better understand what troubles you.
My approach is rooted in relational psychoanalysis, body therapy and intersectionality. This means that we may examine how your early life struggles and family dynamics have impacted the person you are today, how you relate to others, what core beliefs you have internalised growing up, and how that may impede you from reaching for what you want in the present. At the same time, we will observe your relationship with your body, with your own sense of vitality and your embodied ways of being in the world.
Over time, our relationship should serve as a space where you can find empathy, trust, support, and a healthy amount of challenge, that will help you bring to life the most authentic version of yourself.
Training, qualifications & experience
My background in healthcare has significantly influenced my choice of training as an integrative psychotherapist. Having worked in critical care and rehabilitation for many years, I recognise the profound connection between physical and emotional suffering. This experience is at the core of my motivation and interest in working with people who have been impacted by trauma, including complex medical events, chronic illness, disability, vicarious trauma, moral injury, PTSD/C-PTSD etc.
I have experience working with people from different backgrounds who have struggled with depression, anxiety, difficulties in relationships, eating disorders, suicidal ideation, addiction, dissociation, grief, and anger management, to name a few. Over the last few years, I have offered short-term and goal-oriented as well as long-term and explorative therapy within the NSH and as part of a counselling charity.
My training in integrative counselling and psychotherapy equips me to support well-being from a holistic point of view, where every dimension of your life is considered and every part of yourself is welcomed.
I am a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
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.
