About me
As a compassionate integrative psychotherapist, I offer a holistic approach that blends therapeutic modalities with an approach that is relational and collaborative. I hope to provide a safe and supportive space in which you can explore the challenges and difficulties that may have led you to this page right now. A space in which we can together begin to understand and become aware of what may be causing you pain or distress.
My approach is centred on the belief that we all hold the potential for healing. By combining insights from diverse therapeutic traditions, I aim to create a safe and supportive environment that encourages clients to explore their thoughts, feelings, and behaviours, perhaps uncover unconscious patterns and discover new ways of being.
I believe that therapy needs to adapt to suit the unique needs of each client and this informs my integrative approach. I am trauma informed and trained to work within contemporary psychodynamic, existential and humanistic approaches. I also work somatically and use mindfulness techniques. All of this is held within an anti-oppressive, decolonial, LGBTQIA+ affirming and intersectional framework.
Training, qualifications & experience
I completed my Post-Graduate Diploma in Counselling & Psychotherapy and hold a Masters in Psychotherapy and Counselling from Regents University. I am a Registered member of the British Association of Counsellors & Psychotherapists and I am a Practitioner Member of BAATN.
I have experience of providing long term open ended therapy in a low-cost mental health agency. I have also worked in charities supporting women in crisis, victims of domestic violence and refugees. I have worked with people from many different identities and backgrounds, facing a broad range of challenges.
I am committed to participating in additional training and lifelong learning, particularly in the areas of trauma, embodiment, peri/postnatal mental health and systemic oppression. I have completed additional training in parts work, racial trauma, bereavement skills, Compassion Focused Therapy and Intersectionality. I am regularly attending Continuing Professional Development to deepen my learning around the areas I am interested in.
I am in regular clinical supervision, which helps me to support clients and practise to high professional and ethical standards.
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.
