About me
Therapy has the exciting potential to support deep understanding and change of attitude. The reasons that people give therapy a try are uniquely subjective. Initially, perhaps there is a wish to try something new and understanding starts from hints, clues and hunches.
Especially in group therapy you come to know yourself in ways you didn't before, through reflecting with others on experiences in and out of the group. Group therapy is nothing mystical and can lead to better use of intuition as a tool. No need to learn special techniques, in group therapy there are only sincerity, honesty and responsiveness.
I have an interest in language and its effects, an interest in attending to the old injuries and strange life misperceptions that can affect all relationships.
I would be very happy to discuss any questions, please do get in touch.

Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited

As part of its commitment to protect the public, it works to improve access to psychotherapy, to support and disseminate research, to improve standards and to respond effectively to complaints against its members.
UKCP standards cover the range of different psychotherapies. Registration is obtained by training or accrediting with one of its member organisations, or by holding a European Certificate in Psychotherapy. Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
