About me

I am a very experienced psychoanalytic psychotherapist and I am registered with the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy which is one of the main registration bodies for psychotherapists practising in Britain.

I have worked for over twelve years as a qualified psychotherapist providing both short and long term psychotherapy to adults. I am currently working in the NHS as a Principal Adult Psychotherapist and I also have a small private practice.

Training, qualifications & experience

I completed my training with the Arbours Association of Psychotherapists in 2005.

I am also an Associate Member of the Institute of Group Analysis and have a Post Graduate Certificate in Group Analytic Studies from the IGA and Birkbeck University. (2013)

I have a PG Diploma in Management Studies.

I have worked for over  sixteen years as a qualified psychotherapist working with individuals and groups and I have worked in a range of mental health settings for more than twenty five years including statutory and voluntary settings such as residential therapeutic communities.
