About me

I am an Integrative Therapist; this means I am trained in multiple therapies. This allows me to adapt to your needs and be more available to you. I first and foremost offer empathy, objectivity, and respect. I support individuals to heal, develop self-awareness and build resilience. This can be achieved by providing short term or long term counselling.

Working collaboratively, to aid you towards a deeper level of understanding, offer insights and perspectives, explore strategies and coping mechanisms, and support you to achieve the personal development and growth you desire.

Training, qualifications & experience

I am a qualified Integrative Therapist and Member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy MBACP based in Whyteleafe. I have experience working in the IAPT (NHS) sector, in a secondary school supporting young people, as well as long term work with adults. I have experience supporting individuals in a breadth of presenting issues including trauma, identity issues, self-harm, suicide ideation, low self-esteem, work-related stress, as well as anxiety and depression. I am currently accepting private clients in Whyteleafe Monday-Wednesday and London (Soho) on Thursday. I am now accepting young adult clients in my London office. 

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
