About me
I am a psychoanalytic psychotherapist working with adults, offering sessions that can take place once weekly or more intensively, up to three times a week.
Alongside my private practice, I have treated patients across several NHS mental health services, including the Tavistock Clinic. Before training as a therapist, I had a well-established career in writing and the arts, and this creative background continues to influence the way I approach my psychotherapy practice.
Training, qualifications & experience
I trained at the British Psychotherapy Foundation (BPF), where I am member, and I am registered with the British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC).
Member organisations
school 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.
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.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
