About me
I am a compassionate experienced BPC/UKCP/ FPC registered psychodynamic psychotherapist offering both open ended and time limited therapy in person and online.
I offer a safe and confidential space, where you can begin to make sense of your feelings and to identify how you would like to move forward.
I am a firm believer in the transformational potential of the psychotherapeutic relationship and the resilience of the human spirit.
Taking the first step towards therapy can be daunting, but it’s an act of courage and self-care. I commend you for considering it and I would be honoured to accompany you on your journey towards self-discovery.
We would work together to explore your feelings, thoughts and behaviours so you can better understand yourself and others.
Whether you are struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, or simply seeking personal development I am here to support you. Together we can work towards understanding your patterns, uncovering unconscious motivations, and empower you to navigate life’s complexities.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have experience of working with people from a wide range of social and cultural backgrounds and across all age groups.

Member organisations
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.
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.

Whatever it is you are grappling with, I believe that the safety and openness of the therapeutic relationship can offer a uniquely containing and reflective space within which to explore, understand and discover oneself. And with that increased understanding can come a stronger sense of self, an increased inner confidence and a feeling of being more alive.
How I work and what to expect from a first appointment
We would start with an initial consultation appointment (60 mins) where I can find out more about what is troubling you now, what you want from therapy and to gain a wider picture of your life. What has happened in your earlier life can help inform what is happening now. A first appointment also allows you to experience what therapy will feel like with me. I am trained to work at a deeper level to assist with how your current difficulties are shaped by past experiences. I can offer a first appointment in person or online.

As a member of the BPC (British Psychoanalytical Council) and FPC (Foundation for Counselling and Psychotherapy), I follow their strict ethical codes and professional standards including:
- Confidentiality: all your communications with me - whether in person, email or over the phone - will remain confidential.
- Full-cover professional indemnity insurance
