About me
My therapy practice offers a safe, confidential and empathic setting in which to identify, explore and work through issues that may be affecting your life. I am committed to offering thoughtful, non-judgmental psychotherapy and welcome clients from all backgrounds, ethnicities, genders, religions and sexual orientations.
My approach is psychodynamic and relational and I believe that each person is unique in the way that they experience life with its dilemmas, conflicts, traumas, contradictory feelings, desires, hopes and aspirations. My therapeutic approach focuses on the client and to help find a way of developing understandings of their inner-world to help provide purpose and meaning in finding a way forward.
My practice is flexible. I offer long-term face-to-face work, short-term face-to-face work, online sessions and telephone counselling. The first step is to email or telephone to arrange an initial meeting which will provide an opportunity for us to meet and explore whether you might find therapy helpful. If you decide you would like to continue then we would arrange a regular day and time to meet. Sessions last for 50 minutes.

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.

As part of its commitment to protect the public, it works to improve access to psychotherapy, to support and disseminate research, to improve standards and to respond effectively to complaints against its members.
UKCP standards cover the range of different psychotherapies. Registration is obtained by training or accrediting with one of its member organisations, or by holding a European Certificate in Psychotherapy. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
