About me
I help people with a range of issues, including depression, anxiety and relationship problems. Over the years I have successfully worked with people suffering with everything from mild anxiety to severe personality disorders. I specialise in Psychodynamic therapy, which is a deep exploration of the unconscious mind through symbolic, creative interpretation. I combine Jungian and Psychodynamic therapy to facilitate a journey of healing and self-discovery.
In therapy, we will look at your relationships, experiences in the moment in therapy, and experiences within different and perhaps conflicting parts of yourself. We will use this to gain insight and discover your unique path through your problems.
People who have tried CBT or integrative counselling and have found it hasn't worked for them often do better in psychodynamic therapy.
I have undergone extensive personal therapy as part of my training, so I know what it can feel like to be in the other chair.

Member organisations
school 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.
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.
