About me

I am a qualified, experienced and attentive therapist, an Accredited Member of the BACP and registered with the British Psychoanalytic Council. I see individual adults who may be struggling to cope with long term issues, traumatic events or new difficulties that have emerged in their lives.  Others choose psychotherapy to help them understand themselves better and embark on a journey of self-exploration so they can begin to experience their life in a more authentic and fulfilling way.

I provide a confidential setting in which you can share the issues you are struggling with, or the aspects of yourself you wish to explore and we can think about them together in the light of your unique personal history.

Taking the first steps...
If you would like to contact me, you may do so by email or by leaving me a voice message.  We will then speak briefly on the phone and if appropriate, set up an initial consultation during which we will begin to develop a sense of whether working together feels right. We may decide to meet again before deciding whether to begin regular weekly sessions, or we may arrange to begin regular sessions from the following week. I will take you through the practical details and we will take it from there.

My private practice is based in Mill Hill NW7, easily accessible by public transport and car, with parking available. You are welcome to visit my website by clicking on the link, for more information about how I work.

Training, qualifications & experience

I am a qualified and experienced counsellor with a Diploma in Psychodynamic Counselling from The Manor House Centre for Psychotherapy and Counselling, accredited by the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I also have a BA (Jt Hons.) from The University of Bristol.

I am an Accredited Member of the BACP and am also registered with the British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC). I abide by the Code of Ethics of both professional bodies.  I am fully insured.

I have worked as a therapist in clinical practice for a number of years in a range of different settings in addition to my private practice.  I work with individual adults who present with issues such as anxiety, depression, stress, family and relationship difficulties, low self-esteem and low confidence issues, panic attacks, separation, loss and trauma.

Member organisations

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.

BPC
British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC)

The British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC) is a professional association, representing the profession of psychoanalytic psychotherapy.

The organisation is itself made up of fourteen member organisations and BPC accredits the trainings of its member organisations. An individual who qualifies from one of these trainings is then eligible for entry into the BPC's register.

BPC registrants are governed by a code of ethics, a policy of continuing professional development, a statement on confidentiality and a complaints procedure. The BPC is a Member Society of the European Federation for Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy in the Public Sector (EFPP). 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.

Other areas of counselling I deal with

It may be that you are suffering from a more general sense of low mood, or feel you have lost your direction.  You may be feeling ill at ease with yourself and need someone to help you understand why.  There may be many different reasons for you to be seeking therapy and you may not be able to tick a box and put a label on it.  Whatever it is, we can talk it through together.
