About me

Whatever your reasons for seeking counselling I provide a safe space to talk about what is on your mind, experience feelings which might have felt overwhelming, gain more insight, clarity and perspective, and start to make changes.

I am a BACP registered, psychodynamic counsellor and psychotherapist and a COSRT Registered psychosexual and relationship therapist offering counselling to individuals and couples with a wide variety of issues including relationship and sexual issues, sexual difficulties, stress and anxiety, low mood or depression, trauma, feelings of loneliness and isolation, work difficulties, or a feeling that life lacks meaning or purpose. 

As a psychosexual and relationship therapist I work with couples facing challenges such uncertainty about whether to stay together, communication difficulties, infidelity, a major life decision, and sexual issues such as low desire or differences in desire, sexual compulsivity, erectile difficulties, anxiety around sex, or discomfort during sex. 

I see the majority of clients face to face in my private consulting room in Welwyn Garden City (Hertfordshire), which is within a self-contained part of my home with separate access and toilet facilities, and off-street parking. I also see clients via Zoom.

To contact me you can email me here. You can also call me  on 07984 434319. If I am not immediately available just leave a message with your name, telephone number and a good time to contact you and I will call or email you back. 

Training, qualifications & experience

My core training is in psychodynamic counselling and psychotherapy and my principal qualifications are a Diploma and Advanced Diploma in Psychodynamic Counselling (a 5-year BACP accredited training). I also have a Diploma in Psychosexual and Relationship Therapy (a 2-year training accredited by COSRT - the College of Sexual and Relationship Therapists). I have undertaken further training including psychodynamic couples work with the Tavistock Centre, attachment theory at the Bowlby Centre and advanced couples and psychosexual therapy with the NAOS Institute.

I am a Registered Member of the BACP (British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists) and also a Registered Member of COSRT (the College of Sexual and Relationship Therapists). I adhere strictly to the Ethical Frameworks of both of these bodies, which support the importance of safety, confidentiality, respect, and equality. 

Before training as a therapist, I worked within the public sector, as a Chartered Surveyor and manager.

Member organisations

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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

Accredited Register Scheme

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).
