About me

I saw an angel in the marble and carved until I set him free.   –Michelangelo

  • I work successfully with evidence-based Integrative, Relational and Emotionally Focussed Therapy for Individuals and Couples to strengthen your capacity to manage life's challenges with deeper insight into engrained negative patterns and beliefs, anxiety and self-doubt, past and present, so you can flourish as your authentic self in increasingly secure, healthy relationships.
  • In addition to my London Bridge private practice, I am a visiting lecturer & supervisor at University of Westminster in Psychology & Counselling.
  • I respond quickly to emails to arrange a free introductory video chat about your concerns, answer any questions, and decide together if we are a good fit for your needs, which we can review in an initial session.

Training, qualifications & experience

Your goal is not to find love, but to remove all barriers which are preventing you from receiving it. – Rumi

  • As an evidence-based attachment-focussed integrative, relational therapist, I work successfully with individuals and couples to gain necessary insights that challenge the story we each tell ourselves, rooted in our subconscious minds, that colours our experience and interpretation of life's challenges by triggering deeper fears which, whilst essential for human survival, repeat engrained negative patterns that prevent us from moving forward and flourishing with authenticity, resilience and self-acceptance. 
  • I was a volunteer therapist at ELOP, an LGBTQ+ counselling service including trans and non-binary people, working with GSRD - gender, sex & relationship diversity.  
  • I am a certified EFT couples therapist, helping hundreds of couples gain communication skills and insights into their unique co-created attachment-based relationship dynamic to move away from conflict towards mutual empathy and acceptance through constructive, non-critical sharing of difficult feelings; building healthy rupture-repair cycles that replace old, repeating patterns of escalating blame and defensiveness with deeper trust and less reactivity. 
  • I have decades of experience in drug and alcohol recovery as well as other process addictions like sex and porn.
  • EFIT (Emotionally Focussed Individual Therapy) and my relationship therapy experience increasingly influences how I work with individual clients, safely and constructively challenging biases, towards self and others, engrained in beliefs, habits and defences that contribute to painful and sabotaging relationship patterns which leave you feeling disconnected, frustrated, misunderstood and unloved. 
  • Trauma-informed, I have advanced training and extensive experience in anxiety, burnout, bereavement, break-ups, neurodivergence, non-traditional relationships, infidelity, psychosexual issues, compulsive behaviour, self-sabotage and chronic perfectionism and often include relational coaching insights to promote a healthy balance of self-acceptance with actionable change in relationships and personal growth. 

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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

British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
Accredited Register Scheme

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.
