It takes courage to engage in psychotherapy and counselling in the quest for change, and my humanistic principles ensure we are an equal partnership in the process. I am an integrative psychotherapist, using a combination of theoretical approaches that take account of you as a unique individual and your relationships and contexts. My many years of training and experience in combination mean that I have been able to offer therapy for people with a wide range of presenting issues.These include: 

 

 
 
 
 
 
 
I am an accredited integrative psychotherapist (UKCP,UPCA) with a MSc in integrative psychotherapy.

My additional qualifications are: Masters degree in social work, BSc (hons) degree in psychology and anthropology, postgraduate diploma parent infant psychotherapy, postgraduate diploma infant observation and psychoanalytic studies, foundation training group analysis. I have an enhanced DBS certificate.I am fully insured and registered with the ICO.

 

My experience includes working as a university counsellor for students and staff and as a psychotherapist in the voluntary sector.I have worked for Parent Infant Partnerships (PIPS), offering psychotherapy for parents and babies together and in therapy groups. Following my initial training in social work, I worked for many years in the NHS in child and adolescent mental health services and a specialist therapy service for looked after children and their foster carers and adoptive parents.

 

I regularly undertake training and attend workshops to further my skills and I am currently undertaking a UKCP recognised supervision training course. I have experience of training psychotherapists, counsellors and related professionals.

 

Understanding the sociocultural context and challenging my own cultural privelege is a priority. I am committed to further training  and to working creatively and holistically with you. My practice as a psychotherapist is supported by yoga,qigong, mindfulness meditation and being in nature.
