About me
I am a compassionate and experienced psychodynamic counsellor, registered with the British Psychoanalytic Council and British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists.
How Psychodynamic Counselling can help:
In Psychodynamic Counselling we work with the unconscious to bring about a more coherent understanding of the self. Many difficulties remain unconscious and are often linked to our early life experiences and relationships. These patterns may become more conscious through the process of therapy so that they can be thought and talked about to gain a deeper understanding and enable a new way of seeing things.
Our past experiences influence how we relate to ourselves and others, but they don’t have to define us. Through therapy, we can make sense of your struggles, understand emotional roadblocks, and create space for lasting change. Whether you're facing anxiety, relationship difficulties, or a sense of being ‘stuck,’ we’ll work together to unpack things and give you the space to say whatever is on your mind to bring about a deeper understanding and greater sense of clarity.
As a psychodynamic counsellor, I work with you to uncover the deeper layers of your thoughts, emotions, and relationships- often shaped by past experiences in ways we might not fully realise. By use of free association, we enable these patterns to come into awareness so that we can understand how they impact your present life and begin to create meaningful change.

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.
The British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC) is a professional association, representing the profession of psychoanalytic psychotherapy.
The organisation is itself made up of fourteen member organisations and BPC accredits the trainings of its member organisations. An individual who qualifies from one of these trainings is then eligible for entry into the BPC's register.
BPC registrants are governed by a code of ethics, a policy of continuing professional development, a statement on confidentiality and a complaints procedure. The BPC is a Member Society of the European Federation for Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy in the Public Sector (EFPP). Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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.
