About me
I focus mainly on enhancing an individual's self worth and values and couples relationship. Being valued as a person, without being judged, can help an individual to accept who they are, and reconnect with their own inner strength.
I practice an integrative model of therapy. I am a Humanistic Psychotherapist and Counsellor. My counselling experience focuses on Person-Centred Counselling (also known as a Client-Centred Counselling). The counsellor or psychotherapist in this approach aims to provide an environment in which you, my client, do not feel under threat or judged. This enables you to experience and accept more of who you are as a person, and reconnect with your own values and sense of self-worth. This reconnection with their inner resources enables you to find your own way of moving forward.
My office is within a couple of minutes from Stratford station with easy access into Central and East London.

Member organisations

BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
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.
