About me
I am an integrative therapist and have lived in London for most of my life. I have also enjoyed travelling and experiencing different cultures. Listening to others and trying to understand their worlds is something that I have always inclined towards.
Life is dynamic and as such we must at various stages of our lives transform in order to grow and cope with the spectrum of experiences that we will encounter. The many difficulties (and potential traumas) of childhood can play major roles in our adult life, often without us being consciously aware of their influence. Unexamined habits and outdated thought patterns can play havoc with our day-to-day lives and can really affect our relationships with ourselves and others. These difficulties and traumas can manifest as blockages to our potential. My aim is to assist you in locating these blocks, to understand them and to work through them to help unlock the positive potential within you.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have qualified from Lambeth College with a Level 4 Diploma in Therapeutic Counselling. I am a registered member with the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy) and my qualification is granted by the CPCAB (Counselling and Psychotherapy Central Awarding Body). I have collaborated with NHS Wandsworth's Talking Therapies via The Awareness Centre and have also contributed for Third Age Counselling. The modalities I have trained within are person-centred, psychodynamic and existential. I have experience in both long and short-term therapy.
I am always fascinated in how to integrate the body and mind harmoniously. Having suffered stomach issues in my life, I have paid particular attention in how to manage stress through mental attitudes and a healthy diet. To that end, I have a Level 3 Diploma as a Nutrition Consultant from the Open Study College.
I have also practiced Mindfulness at the Mindfulness Project and continue to apply its therapeutic techniques for my own wellbeing.
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.
