About me
I am a Counselling Psychologist registered with the HCPC (Health and Care Professions Council), a Chartered Psychologist with the BPS (British Psychological Society), and an accredited psychotherapist with the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy).
I am also a Clinical Psychologist trained in Argentina and a registered clinical supervisor with the BPS Register of Applied Psychology Practice Supervisors (RAAPS). I currently have spaces to supervise trainee and qualified psychotherapists.
I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing), which can support the processing of overwhelming or traumatic experiences in a safe and contained way.
I work with young people, adults, couples and families, and I also facilitate therapeutic groups. My approach integrates existential psychotherapy with somatic psychology, recognising the deep connection between body, emotions, thoughts, and imagination. I draw from a range of therapeutic approaches to support growth, healing, and a greater sense of embodied presence. I am interested in understanding how you (and, where relevant, your partner) experience the world—what matters to you, how you relate to yourself and others, and how your experiences are held both emotionally and physically.
Alongside talking therapy, I may offer creative approaches such as writing, drawing, or movement, for those who feel that words alone are not always enough.
I offer face to face sessions in Brighton but I also work online.
I can do sessions in English and Spanish. I accept Bupa, AXA, AVIVA and Vitality insurances.

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.
British Psychological Society
The HCPC are an independent, UK-wide health regulator. They set standards of professional training, performance and conduct for 16 professions.
They keep a register of health professionals who meet their standards, and they take action if registered health professionals fall below those standards. They were created by a piece of legislation called the Health Professions Order 2001.
Registration means that a health professional meets national standards for their professional training, performance and conduct.
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
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.
