About me

I offer weekly, face-face therapy for you to explore whatever is concerning you. Being an integrative psychotherapist means I am trained in a number of therapeutic approaches which I draw upon to find the most appropriate way to work with you as an individual or couple.

You may want to address a specific issue such as anxiety, relationship difficulties or a sudden life event. Or it may be a vague, nagging sense that something feels wrong. Most of us have parts of ourselves which feel confusing or painful. By working together in therapy we can take time to explore these, to better understand the obstacles that may be holding us back and find healthier ways of living and relating.

I offer both short term counselling and longer-term psychotherapy. My intergrative method incorporates psychodynamic, humanistic, existential, body psychotherapy, attachment theory and contemporary relational psychotherapy models.

Training, qualifications & experience

I have an MA and Advanced Diploma in Integrative Psychotherapy and Counselling and a Diploma in Relationship and Psychosexual therapy. I am accredited by the UKCP, abiding by their code of ethics in practice.

I have worked in the NHS, as a therapist at a London drama school and in private practice which has given me experience in treating a wide range of issues including anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, identity issues, work burn out and sexual difficulties. I am a Director of the group practice The Thought House Partnership in Central London and work with the Trauma Foundation South West in Bristol.

Interests

I am particularly interested in seeing emotional and psychological problems in the context of the body and mind as a whole system and have conducted a piece of research exploring different impacts of yoga from a psychotherapeutic perspective. I am trained in trauma techniques including EMDR.

Therapeutic theory is ever developing and I am committed to increasing my knowledge and absorbing new ways of working by keeping up to date with the latest research.
