About me
Counselling for couples via Zoom or Skype
Please note that I currently only offer online couples counselling via Zoom or Skype.
Trained at the Tavistock Centre for Couple Relationships, I specialise in couples counselling and therapy. For several years I was the Relate counsellor for Highbury. I now offer private counselling in N5 and N1.
After an initial consultation, you can choose short-term or longer-term work.
My consulting rooms are very close to Highbury and Islington station — on the Victoria Line, First Capital Connect and North London and East London Lines.
Highbury and Islington station is one stop from King's Cross and easily accessible from Euston and Central London, Farringdon, Moorgate and the City, North London and East London.
Training, qualifications & experience
I hold a postgraduate diploma in psychodynamic marital and relationship therapy from the Tavistock Centre for Couple Relationships (TCCR) in London.
I also draw on Attachment Theory, Mentalization-Based Therapy (MBT) and Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT).
As part of TCCR's Parents in Dispute and Parenting Together services I helped couples to communicate better and empathise with their children's experiences. I have also worked in TCCR's relationship counselling and assessment services.
I am an Accredited and Registered member of the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists and work within its code of practice. I was a founding full member of the British Society of Couple Psychotherapists and Counsellors.
Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
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.
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.
