About me

I am a BACP Accredited Integrative Psychotherapist & Clinical Supervisor, working in private practice. I use a range of therapies, including Humanistic, Psychodynamic and Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to work with people who are struggling with psychological difficulties - from severe and complex mental health problems, to those who simply want to understand themselves better.

I believe that the therapeutic relationship is a central component of successful therapy, which is why I provide a warm, supportive, non-judgemental space where we will work together to identify your concerns and come to a shared understanding of your difficulties in order to enable and support change.

My post qualification training in Trauma focused CBT & EMDR therapy helps me to provide specialised short term, goal orientated therapy to individuals who have experienced developmental, situational or complex trauma. I have experience of providing trauma support to the Emergency Services, having worked in-house for the London Fire Brigade, and I have also provided trauma focused counselling on an ad hoc affiliate basis to British Armed Forces employees.

Having previously practiced as a Registered Midwife, I have a special interest in Women's health. I combine my extensive midwifery experience and trauma training to provide counselling support to women in the ante-natal and post-natal period and specialise in birth trauma and post-natal depression.

Qualifications & Training:

MSc (Psych); BSc (Hons) Occ. Health; Dip Midwifery; PG Dip Trauma Therapy. PG Adv. Dip CBT(REBT); EMDR Therapist. PG Dip Supervision.
