About me
Welcome to my profile,
I am a qualified and accredited UKCP registered psychosynthesis psychotherapist working in a beautiful and tranquil setting in East London, a short distance from the City on the border between E5 and N16. My practice is 3 minutes from Clapton station and 5 minutes from Rectory Rd, both are on the line from Liverpool St station.
I provide a warm, safe, calm and non-judgmental space where you can be seen and heard and where you can reflect upon your struggles and upon the changes you would like to see in your life.
If this sounds like it could be helpful to you please get in touch and i will arrange an initial meeting to explore the issues and to answer any further questions you may have about the counselling process.
I can be contacted on 07818 832 352. I regard my work with a diverse range of people and situations as a great privilege and i look forward to receiving your call.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am an accredited and registered [UKCP] psychotherapist with over 30 years of experience in the helping professions.
My work reflects a holistic and inclusive approach to the person that stresses the importance of experience at the level of body, feelings, mind and spirit because each of these are important to the art of 'living well' and achieving our full potential.
I have extensive experience working with people from different cultural backgrounds and a strong commitment to anti-discriminatory practice.
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 UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) is a leading professional body for the education, training and regulation of psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors. Its register is accredited by the government's 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.
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).
