About me
You're very welcome to arrange an initial online meeting with me, free of charge. This gives you an opportunity to meet me, and gives us both a chance to think about how we might work together and what next steps might be most helpful for you.
I’m a Senior Accredited BACP registered psychodynamic therapist and an associate member of the Institute of Group Analysis. I offer both individual and low-cost group therapy.
Low cost therapy is available and I aim to make therapy accessible and affordable to as many people as possible.
Before training, I originally studied the French horn at the Guildhall School of Music and Drama. Alongside my clinical work, I'm also a published and produced playwright.
If you have any questions about beginning therapy, or would like to make an appointment, please get in touch.
Training, qualifications & experience
I'm a Senior Accredited Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and an associate member of the Institute of Group Analysis. I abide by the codes of ethics for these organisations.
My initial training was a PGDip in Psychodynamic Counselling (Distinction) at the University of Brighton. Subsequently, I completed the Institute of Group Analysis’ diploma course in London, leading to group-work practitioner status. I've also completed clinical courses at the Institute of Psychoanalysis.
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.
