I am a BACP accredited (2003) and UKCP registered (2004) Integrative Psychotherapist. I abide by the BACP and UKCP code of ethics.
I have over 20 years experience of working with adults and young people. I see people individually, either short-term for between 6 and 12 sessions, or long-term, for more in depth work, which may be for a number of months or years.
I provide a safe and confidential space in which people can express their feelings, and talk about any difficulties that they are experiencing. Rather than giving advice or providing answers, my skill is to help and support people in a non-judgmental way, to find their own answers and deepen their self-awareness. My style of work is grounded in my understanding of the uniqueness of each person who comes to see me, and for us to work together to try and make sense of their thoughts, feelings and sense of self. This can involve exploring the meaning and importance of their personal experiences, relationships and particular circumstances.
I trained at The Minster Centre where I was awarded a Diploma and MA in Integrative Psychotherapy in 2000. Since then I have been, and continue to run my private practice in Islington. In the past I have also worked in Schools and Hospitals.
