About me
I am a senior accredited psychotherapist/counsellor with over 11 years experience including both in the NHS and private practice, as well as the Honorary Secretary for the London-based Southern Association For Psychotherapy and Counselling (SAFPAC). I am also a member of the UK Balint Society and have continued my training and development with SAFPAC, the Society of Analytical Psychology (SAP), London and the CG Jung Institute of Los Angeles, California, United States. Originally, I trained as a prehospital care ambulance and helicopter air ambulance flight paramedic and hold over 19 years clinical experience.
I offer psychotherapy from one to three times a week depending on your individual need and personal circumstances. Sessions last for 50 minutes and I offer you a space to talk about anything that may be bothering or troubling you. I will be present, listen to, and offer you my thoughts and reflections.
If you feel that I may be of help to you, please do get in touch with me.

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.
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.
