About me

Although it is good practice not to reveal much about oneself as a psychotherapist, one thing to mention is my extensive experience as a patient in my own personal analysis - a prerequisite for all psychotherapists. This is the bedrock of my training and education in the practice of psychotherapy and in my membership of The Society of Analytical Psychology (SAP). The SAP would describe itself as having a ‘developmental’ Jungian approach which means that we are interested in the development of the patient over time, from their beginnings, and how that story informs the present day. The SAP training is classed by the British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC) as the most rigorous and extensive available. I have worked in a number of psychotherapy centres across London including in honorary placement at the NHS in both therapy and psychiatric settings. I bring all this experience into the room to be available for those who come to explore with me who they are. 

Training, qualifications & experience

I trained at the Society of Analytical Psychology which is accredited by the British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC).  I am also a member of the International Association of Analytical Psychology (IAAP) and consequently adhere to a strict code of ethics that is regulated to the highest standards. I currently hold an honorary position with NHS SLAM.
