About me
As a registered accredited UKCP, MBACP Psychotherapist, my approach is integrative, psychodynamic, creative and transpersonal. This means I see you as a whole person- body, mind, and spirit.
Alongside traditional therapeutic theories and modalities- Humanistic, Psychodynamic, Existential, and transpersonal I may draw on creative techniques to support your process: breath and sound exercises for relaxation, guided visualisation and creative imagination, dream-work, inner child work. We may explore your childhood experience, family dynamics as well as any personal or professional challenges you may be finding difficult to understand, overcome or change. We will explore and consider inherited, cultural family patterns and traits, personal triggers …
I will tailor my approach to support your unique therapeutic process.
As inner balance and harmony is restored and the fog and confusion around decision-making starts to lift and clear the path you have been searching for will start to emerge as you develop greater understanding, compassion and self-love.
This will enable you to make better choices and decisions, and make the positive changes in your personal and professional relationships that matter to you.

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.
The UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) is a leading professional body for the education, training and regulation of psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors. Its register is accredited by the government's Professional Standards Authority.
As part of its commitment to protect the public, it works to improve access to psychotherapy, to support and disseminate research, to improve standards and to respond effectively to complaints against its members.
UKCP standards cover the range of different psychotherapies. Registration is obtained by training or accrediting with one of its member organisations, or by holding a European Certificate in Psychotherapy. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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).
