About Therapy:
It takes courage to acknowledge that for whatever reason you are struggling to manage life as well as you might like. It takes courage to accept that you need help to manage a historic or ongoing difficulty or to cope with a sudden and traumatic life experience.
As your Therapist I will be beside you to help you on your journey of recovery. I offer you a confidential and non judgmental space to explore and process you issue, helping you to heal.
I can help with:
- Addiction and destructive behaviour patterns
- Eating Disorders
- Divorce and separation
- Traumatic life experiences
- Loss, grief and bereavement
- Depression, low mood and anxiety
- Rape and sexual abuse
- Mediation - family conflict, workplace & neighbour disputes
- Child and Adolescent emotional, social and behavioural difficulties (ESBD)
- Support for parents facing difficulty with a childs' behaviour
- Supporting victims of crime including the families of offenders
In addition to my own private practice I work with a leading Harley Street Addiction Treatment clinic.
Please do feel free to contact me in confidence to discuss your individual therapy needs.

Member organisations
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.
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
BACP is one of the UK’s largest professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy. Therapists registered with the Association fall into a number of different membership categories such as Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP and Registered Member MBACP (Accred), each standing for different levels of training and experience. MBACP (Accred) and MBACP (Snr Accred) members have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by the Association.
Registered members can be found on the BACP Register, which was the first register to achieve Accredited Voluntary Register status issued by the Professional Standards Authority. Individual Members will have completed an appropriate counselling and/or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but will not appear on the BACP Register until they've progressed to Registered Member MBACP status.
All members are bound by a Code of Ethics & Practice and a Complaints Procedure. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
