About me
Hello,
Below is an introduction to my counselling practice. I am an experienced and fully qualified professional counsellor and psychotherapist.
- What form of therapy do you provide?
I provide an integrative counselling experience; this means I utilise aspects of several models of therapy to suit individual circumstances. It is unrealistic to expect one model of therapy to meet everyone's needs, therefore having access to several models provides an approach that is tailored to each individual's needs. I also believe that therapy should be a collaborative experience where we work together to find solutions.
- How does this work in practice?
Many clients are in a cycle of therapy and regression, therapy alleviates the symptoms but at some stage, the symptoms may return. I utilise a range of creative/experiential methods with the goal of finding a longer term solution.

Member organisations
The Association of Christian Counsellors and Linked Professions is a professional body representing and setting standards for Christian counselling and care in the UK. The organisation is made up of various different membership categories, including Counsellor and Accredited, and requires all members working as counsellors to undertake Continuous Professional Development on a regular basis.
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).

Further information
I have experience of working in a busy NHS medical practice, a Harley St practice, an addiction centre and in Church counselling services.
Therapy may be short term or open ended. I have experience of both and recognise the value of each in the right circumstances; we can discuss what might be best for you during our first session. Sessions last 50 minutes and generally take place at the same time each week.
I offer online counselling or face-to-face at my Richmond counselling room. I have been counselling online for several years and am experienced in using this medium.
