About me
I am a child, adolescent and family psychotherapist working with children, young people and families. I work from a calm and professional purpose made clinic room at my home, which has been made suitable for both young children and adolescents, to ensure everyone who comes here feels safe and comfortable.
I work therapeutically with children, adolescents and parents and I also offer parent-infant work. I can also support and liaise with schools and other professionals to help support the system around the young person.
I offer therapeutic support for a wide range of issues including low self-esteem, anxiety, depression, self-harm, emotional regulation difficulties, poor self image, abuse, trauma, suicidal thoughts and much more.
Training, qualifications & experience
I trained at the Tavistock and Portman and have a postgraduate certificate in child, adolescent and family mental well-being and a Masters in psychological therapies with children, young people and families.
I have worked with children and young people for 17 years in various capacities including as a teacher, a specialist SEMH teacher (social, emotional and mental health teacher) and a therapist.
Member organisations
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.
