About me
Personal Statement:
Over time I have closely witnessed how acutely people can suffer and how diminished their lives feel as a result. Post Covid that suffering has increased as a result of the unfolding societal challenges we are facing.
Many years of training and experience have gone into treating the issues listed below. I also supervise experienced therapists and examine in London.
Whatever has prompted you to make the call please be assured your enquiry will be treated sensitively and confidentially. If I am in session I will come back to you as swiftly as possible.

Chronic Anxiety
Depression ~ episodic & chronic relapse
Abuse [historic & present]
Inappropriate Internet use [including CPS / Police involvement]
ADHD & ASD ~ strategies to cope

Problematic / disordered eating [Pre-acute treatment ~ Mentalisation based]
Life crises [Divorce / bereavement / medical emergencies]
Gender issues [identity, sexuality]
Relationship issues, couples' / marriage guidance
