About me

I am an approachable and experienced UKCP registered Psychotherapist. I work with people experiencing depression, low self esteem, anxiety, relationship issues at home and at work, questions around sexuality and relationship styles, ADHD, and more. 

My therapeutic approach integrates aspects of contemporary Psychodynamic and Attachment theories, CBT, humanistic approaches, and Mindfulness. I see therapy an opportunity to explore, to challenge and to develop new ways of being and relating. I work with my clients in an honest, authentic way, and invite them to do the same with me.

I've been working as a Psychotherapist for almost a decade and working in the field of mental health for 17 years. After completing my first degree in Psychology I worked in recovery services with people who had complex mental health needs and/or learning differences, often coming out of long stints in psychiatric units, prison, or having been sleeping rough. I went on to manage these services and later worked as a senior director of a large charitable organisation providing mental health and social housing to the NHS. After this I spent a couple of years in a part time role for the NHS commissioning mental health services in London for a few years while completing my therapy training and placements. I find that this range of experience, across clinical settings as well as more corporate environments, is very valuable in private practice.

These days I work as Psychotherapist wholly in private practice, as well as offering occasional supervision to Psychotherapy students carrying out Masters projects.

I'm based between London and Devon and offer sessions online only.

Member organisations

school Registered / Accredited

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.

UKCP
UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP)

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
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.

Wheelchair user access info
Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.
