About me
I'm a UKCP registered psychotherapist trained as both an individual therapist as well with couples and families as systemic family therapist for adults and children. I have worked for 20 years in the NHS and social care in a variety of settings as a psychotherpist, supervisor and tutor for trainee therapists. I am experienced in working with complex trauma, low self esteem, identity difficulties and mental health problems as well as relationship difficulties. I supervise individuals and teams working in mental health and social care. I am also an experienced tutor and trainer in child developmental, mental health and attachment.

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.
