About me

I am Head of Clinical Services at Tavistock Relationships (http://www.tavistockrelationships.org/) and in my private practice I see couples and individuals offering a predominantly psychodynamic approach. This is a non-directive, exploratory way of working and addresses deep-seated, complex, troubling issues and supports patients in creating a more fulfilling life. This analytic approach examines how past experiences might shape and influence our thinking in regard to both our present relationships and in our relationship with ourselves.

Psychodynamic psychotherapy works toward developing a greater awareness of these early patterns of behaviour, allowing the patient or couple to experience a greater sense of personal authority and well-being in the here and now.

I also hold a Certificate in Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy, using elements of this innovative approach to relationship therapy in my work with couples. You can find out more about Emotionally Focused Couple Therapy at www.iceeft.com.

Training, qualifications & experience

I originally trained at the Tavistock Centre for Couple Relationships, where I currently work as Head of Clinical Services and couple psychoanalytic psychotherapist.

As a faculty staff member at TCCR I contribute to all aspects of the clinical, teaching and research activities. Currently I lead TCCR's innovative Adopting Together Service, which offers couple therapy support to parents who have adopted.

As a member of the Parenting Together Team, I worked as Senior Research Psychotherapist on TCCR’s Parents in Conflict randomised controlled trial investigating the effectiveness of the mentalization-based therapy for parental conflict – Parenting Together.

I am also involved in delivering, teaching and supervising TCCR's Parents as Partners project, which is an evaluated group work programme for parents who are struggling with conflict and stress in their parenting and relationships.

I have a special interest in working with separated parents who are struggling to resolve their conflict and establish a collaborative co-parenting relationship to support their children.

I have co-authored TCCR’s practical guide, which offers support to separated parents. You can read this by clicking on the link below:
