About me
As an Integrative Transpersonal Counsellor I draw together different approaches whilst offering therapy with soul - looking beyond the immediate problem, or symptom to work in ways that honour each client's deeper journey.
Therapy will mean different things to different people based on their life experiences and what they begin to discover from the relationship that forms (over time) with their therapist.
Undoubtedly there will be differences between us and I aim to be inclusively open and curious to considering the many intersectional aspects of identity which impact our experiences of life and each other - including but not limited to gender, race, class, and body.
For me, therapy has meant a chance to revisit old stories and beliefs whilst gaining fresh insights and understandings which have enabled me to slowly change my relationship to myself - this in turn has gradually changed the world around me and all of my relationships within it.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have a Diploma in Integrative Transpersonal Counselling with Re-Vision and am a Registered Member of the BACP. Alongside seeing clients in my private practice I also work with people affected by cancer at The Mulberry Centre, West Middlesex Hospital.
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.

Additional information
Fees are negotiable for those on low incomes.
I work in person in London Bridge on Mondays and in person in Ealing (near Northfields Tube) on Wednesdays, I also have online availability at other times.
We can meet initially online to talk a little about why you're seeking therapy, what you might hope for and to give you a sense of how it might be to work with me. There would be no charge for this session and no obligation to continue.
If we decide to go ahead, then typically it would be for 50 minute weekly sessions on the same day and at the same time each week.

Further information
I work with clients both in person and online.
I will be led by you and what you bring to our sessions with a commitment to my own self-examination through supervision as a means of understanding what might also be happening between us that is not immediately apparent.
Usually I will suggest working in an open-ended way, which means there is no set end point but we can periodically review how the therapy is going: generally speaking, therapy is not a quick process, as often the issues we bring have been developed over many years and may be linked to early childhood experiences.
I have a particular interest in working with shame, grief and family trauma.
