About me
I think much of the work of psychotherapy is in helping my clients think - staying with information and making sense of it. I help clients learn to really sit with their feelings - believing that by doing so they might end up where they need to be.
I work with individuals and couples.
As a psychotherapist, I support clients with their experience of: anxiety, depression & low mood, anger, self-esteem and relationship difficulties.
I have a special interest in working with Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.
I had a first career as a senior executive in financial services, and support clients with work related difficulties: stress, imposter syndrome, perfectionism and issues of identity - processing loss and finding meaning following career transitions including redundancy or retirement.
Training, qualifications & experience
I gained a Masters (MSc) in Integrative Psychotherapy, qualifying as a psychotherapist with distinction - training at London's renowned Metanoia Institute. Metanoia has provided high quality training for students from across the world in the psychological therapies for more than 30 years.
As well as a Masters in Psychotherapy I have a Masters in Executive Coaching from Ashridge Business School.
I have been providing support to clients since 2012.
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).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
