About me
Hello and welcome,
I am a fully qualified and experienced psychodynamic psychotherapist, registered with BACP and FPC.
I work face to face with individuals on a long term basis or, if you wish a specific focus, in a time limited frame of 12 sessions. I am bilingual and can offer sessions in English or French.
My approach is psychodynamic, which means the sessions focus on your unconscious and early relationships to gain insight into your current moods, behaviour and decisions. This process helps to attain a more reflective and objective perspective on your life and a better capacity to relate to yourself and others.
But regardless of the approach, I understand that, essentially, offering a safe, reliable and confidential space is important to build a trusting therapeutic relationship.
Training, qualifications & experience
Overall, I have experience working in an open ended and time limited (12 sessions) frame with a wide range of people and diverse problems including:
- anxiety
- depression
- low mood
- low self-esteem
- relationship problems
- life and work stress
- bereavement and loss
- issues relating to sexuality and identity
- trauma.
I qualified with a Postgraduate Diploma in Psychodynamic Psychotherapy from WPF Therapy, a well-respected psychotherapy training institution founded in 1969. This qualification is validated by the University of Roehampton and accredited by the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy).
I am a member of BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and FPC (Foundation for Psychotherapy and Counselling) and abide by their codes of ethics, professional conduct and practice. I have full professional indemnity.
Making the first contact may feel like the hardest part of the process. I understand that one can feel nervous about stepping into the unknown. I am happy to speak to you on the phone or via email to start with and take it from there.
The initial consultation is an opportunity to explore your individual needs and answer any questions you may have. There is no obligation to continue after this session. All content of the session is strictly confidential.
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.
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.
