About me
It can be difficult to know where to begin when reading therapist profiles. Most of us work with the challenges of being human: anxiety, depression, loneliness, career and professional concerns, relationship problems, questions of meaning, the persistent sense that something does not feel quite right. What might be most useful for you to know is how I actually think about therapy, and what it might be like to work with me.
I work with people who seek a deeper relationship with themselves. Usually, our patterns have developed for good reasons. Understanding them can create more freedom to decide what still serves you and what no longer does.
You might feel that you are at a crossroads in your life, or experience a sense of 'stuckness'. You might find yourself acting in ways that seem in conflict with what you want. You might feel that something exists, just out of conscious awareness, which drives you. I offer a stable space in which we can become curious about these aspects of your life, together.
I pay close attention to the unconscious, the imaginative and the symbolic aspects of your inner life. I have experience in working with addiction, early life and family trauma, grief, relationship difficulties, codependence and relational abuse. My work has also encompassed sexuality and sexual identity, difficulties around sex and intimacy.
If you are interested in working together, do reach out to arrange an initial meeting in which we can explore what it might be like to work together.
Training, qualifications & experience
I trained at the University of Roehampton, holding an MA in Integrative Psychotherapy.
Prior to working as a psychotherapist I found myself working in hospitals, prisons and support services with individuals struggling with addiction.
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.
