About me
As a psychotherapist I approach each client and couple as unique individuals. Between us we decide the particular way we work, this might be short-term or open ended but it will always be a collaboration at a pace determined by you. In a safe environment painful feelings can be expressed, held and explored with kindness and compassion. Whether you are in an immediate crisis or struggling with past traumas, together we can work towards a better understanding and lessening the distress in your life. Psychotherapy can give you more awareness of why you feel and think the way you do, help you begin to heal some of the hurt and release the potential for more freedom and fulfilment.
You may be experiencing any of the following:
- anxiety or depression
- feeling isolated, hurt, angry or violent
- family, step-parenting and relationship issues
- worries about sex and sexuality
- concerns about health, food and alcohol
- a general sense of unease
- a search for meaning and the purpose of life
- feeling overwhelmed and unsure of who you are
- problems with work or study
- losing a job
- the death of a loved one
- going through the menopause
- fear of ageing and one’s own death
- feeling sad, lost or hopeless
As a couple you might seek counselling for:
- sexual and emotional difficulties in your relationship
- infidelity or betrayal
- making decisions about having children or not
- feeling that you are always arguing
- wondering what happened to your love for each other
- worried that you are drifting apart
- looking for a way to end your relationship amicably
If you are interested in supervision please contact me for an initial discussion of your requirements.
I also offer support to help you realise creative and academic projects and support for times when you feel blocked. My belief in the creative capacity of human beings, given the right conditions, underpins all my work.
I work in East Sussex in Hove BN3 and Lewes BN7 from quiet, comfortable rooms easily accessible by public transport.

Member organisations
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) is a leading professional body for the education, training and regulation of psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors. Its register is accredited by the government's Professional Standards Authority.
As part of its commitment to protect the public, it works to improve access to psychotherapy, to support and disseminate research, to improve standards and to respond effectively to complaints against its members.
UKCP standards cover the range of different psychotherapies. Registration is obtained by training or accrediting with one of its member organisations, or by holding a European Certificate in Psychotherapy. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
