HCPC registered MA Art Psychotherapy trained in MBT & IFS

About me

I am an HCPC registered integrative psychotherapist with an MA in Art Psychotherapy, training in Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Mentalization Based Therapy (MBT).  My approach is fundamentally person-centred and I prioritize letting the therapeutic process evolve naturally, allowing you the space to explore at a pace that feels comfortable for you.  However, I can also provide a more directive, structured process when helpful, ensuring you always feel supported and guided.  My private practice is based in Summertown, Oxford. 

Training, qualifications & experience

I have experience working with a range of relationship and other issues concerning mental health, including family issues, depression, anxiety, stress, sexual and physical abuse, aloneness, bereavement, low self-esteem and trauma.

I offer one-to-one therapy sessions for adults, adolescents, and children, with options to meet in person or online. To learn more about how I work, please look through my website or get in touch directly via email or phone.

HCPC
Health and Care Professions Council (HCPC)

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.
