About me
You're probably visiting this page because you want something to change. You're most likely feel overwhelmed or stuck. Reaching out is often the hardest part of getting help.
I welcome people from all walks of life, particularly LGBTQ clients. I primarily work with depression, anxiety, low confidence, phobias and trauma (including PTSD).
Contact me for a free initial 15-minute consultation.
I offer counselling, the Rewind technique, CBT, hypnotherapy and EMDR.
EMDR and Rewind are evidence-based therapies originally developed for PTSD. They're also used for a broad range of other problems including anxiety, low self esteem, phobias, anger issues and more.
I use CBT and hypnotherapy primarily for mild to moderate problems.
As you have your own unique reasons for seeking therapy, I encourage you to book a free short initial consultation first. After that, if we agree, I will set up an assessment session - this lasts 50 minutes and is to find out more about your needs, and for you to find out more about what therapy will look like.
All sessions are of course confidential.
I offer sessions online, or face to face in Crouch End (North London).
Training, qualifications & experience
My integrative background involves tailoring different theoretical approaches depending on your personal needs.
I am an accredited member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP).
I have been practising as a counsellor since 2016. I hold the following qualifications:
- an advanced diploma in Humanistic Integrative Counselling
- a diploma in Cognitive Behavioural Hypnotherapy
- EMDR practitioner status, recognised by the EMDR Association UK
- Attachment-focused EMDR training
- BPS-approved certificates in trauma treatments
- Rewind technique for trauma
- ACTO-accredited certificate in online and telephone counselling
I undergo ongoing supervision and professional training to ensure that I continue to practise to high standards.
Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
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.
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.
