About me
I am a highly experienced Senior HCPC registered Counselling Psychologist working in North London. I offer short and long-term therapy for various issues in the areas of adjustment and stress/coping concerns (home, school, work), mental health (i.e. anxiety, depression, PTSD), relationship based difficulties (often working with couples and families), severe mental health illness including bipolar, personality disorders and addictions.
My experience enables me to provide compassionate therapy using the most effective methods when supporting individuals to overcome their difficulties. I believe having the space to reflect in a non-judgemental relationship can help develop new ways of coping and managing.
Training, qualifications & experience
Alongside my private practice, I currently work at University College London Hospital (UCLH) as a Senior Counselling Psychologist in a world leading cancer psychology service. Prior to my current role, I worked for the Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust (a specialist mental health Trust based in London) and led a physical health psychology department at St George's NHS Foundation Trust in London. My training and experience includes Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Compassion Focused Therapy and Existential Therapy. I also have extensive experience in physical health conditions and end of life care.
I am fully trained and experienced in offering supervision for Clinical/Counselling Psychology students and facilitating staff support groups.
Member organisations
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 HCPC are an independent, UK-wide health regulator. They set standards of professional training, performance and conduct for 16 professions.
They keep a register of health professionals who meet their standards, and they take action if registered health professionals fall below those standards. They were created by a piece of legislation called the Health Professions Order 2001.
Registration means that a health professional meets national standards for their professional training, performance and conduct.
