About me
I am an Integrative Psychotherapist and Counsellor with a wide range of clinical and life experience. After a career in the City and running my own company, I trained at Regent’s University London and in the NHS at Guy's hospital. I now work in private practice with adults and young people in Kensington & Chelsea and Earls Court.
As an integrative psychodynamic therapist, I am able to draw on different ways of working that are specifically suited to my clients. I explore with them their thoughts and emotions, their problems and difficulties. My aim is to help them resolve these problems and difficulties with understanding and warmth, to help alleviate pain and distress and enable them to bring about change and move forward with their lives.
As well as face-to-face sessions at my practices, I can arrange home-visits, Skype therapy and/or telephone sessions to accomodate the needs of busy professionals or people from different time zones.

Further information
The initial session is an assessment when I ask you some questions which gives you the opportunity to talk about your concerns, for you to understand how I work and for you to see that you are comfortable and that we are best suited to work together.
I will then offer you regular sessions which normally last 50 minutes weekly. We decide whether the therapy would be suited to short-term, long-term or open-ended therapy.
As a Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and the UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP), I subscribe to their code of ethics, act in accordance with their code of practice and I am accountable to these institutions for my performance as a psychotherapist.
