About me
I am a qualified and fully registered psychodynamic psychotherapist in private practice. With experience working in the NHS and the charitable sector, I have work with diverse group of clients in London and Radlett (nr. St Albans) Hertfordshire.
I provide a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space to explore what might be troubling you or preventing you in experiencing your life fully. People seek therapy many reasons including anxiety, bereavement, depression, low self-esteem, self-development, stress, relationship or work issues and trauma.
Difficult experiences in the past can affect our feelings and the way in which we experience our lives now. My approach is to work with you to explore your emotions and behaviours in order to help you understand yourself and your internal world and, via the therapeutic relationship, gain insight into your relationship with yourself and with others.
During the national pandemic, depending on client needs, I will be offering sessions online, by telephone or face-to-face in a Covid-19 secure setting .
Training, qualifications & experience
I hold a Postgraduate Diploma in Psychodynamic Theory and Practice from the University of Roehampton, and a Qualification in Psychodynamic Psychotherapy from WPF Therapy, a highly regarded training institution which offers one of the most rigorous trainings in psychotherapy at which I have also held the position of Training Manager. I continue my professional development and education by attending relevant training courses and seminars.
Starting therapy can be a daunting experience, but essentially one that many find rewarding and fulfilling. The first step is to contact me to arrange a commitment-free initial consultation where we can discuss what might be troubling you and for you to get a sense of my approach and how this might work for you.
Member organisations
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.
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy
BACP is one of the UK’s largest professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy. Therapists registered with the Association fall into a number of different membership categories such as Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP and Registered Member MBACP (Accred), each standing for different levels of training and experience. MBACP (Accred) and MBACP (Snr Accred) members have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by the Association.
Registered members can be found on the BACP Register, which was the first register to achieve Accredited Voluntary Register status issued by the Professional Standards Authority. Individual Members will have completed an appropriate counselling and/or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but will not appear on the BACP Register until they've progressed to Registered Member MBACP status.
All members are bound by a Code of Ethics & Practice and a Complaints Procedure. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
British Psychoanalytic Council
The British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC) is a professional association, representing the profession of psychoanalytic psychotherapy.
The organisation is itself made up of fourteen member organisations and BPC accredits the trainings of its member organisations. An individual who qualifies from one of these trainings is then eligible for entry into the BPC's register.
BPC registrants are governed by a code of ethics, a policy of continuing professional development, a statement on confidentiality and a complaints procedure. The BPC is a Member Society of the European Federation for Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy in the Public Sector (EFPP). Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
