About me and my therapy practice
I am a Senior Accredited Psychotherapist and Counsellor, and have over 25 years of experience working with issues including: low mood; anxiety; self-esteem; relationship issues; issues related to childhood abuse/neglect; co-dependency; trauma and addictions.
I offer daytime, lunchtime and early morning (pre-work) appointments; most of my work is medium to longer term.
Please note that, since the pandemic started in 03/20, my therapy has been solely delivered on remote platforms (online and over the telephone); this will continue indefinitely.
My fees are on a sliding scale from £60-100 per weekly session, based on income. The lowest rate (£60) is for those earning less than £30K pa; these places are limited to four, so please do ask about availability.
My core qualification is an M.A. in Integrative Psychotherapy and Counselling (Distinction), and my Integration is primarily Humanistic and Psychodynamic. I also hold qualifications in Cognitive Behavioural Therapies, Mediation, Hypnotherapy and Psychodynamic Supervision. I have further training to Level Two in Lifespan Integration and a particular interest in Mindfulness.

About me and my therapy practice
I am a Senior Accredited Psychotherapist, Counsellor and Supervisor, and have over 25 years of experience in the field. I am particularly experienced in clinical work with abuse, addictions and adults who grew up in dysfunctional families (trauma).
Until the pandemic in 03/20, all of this work was delivered face-to-face, in short, medium and long-term settings. I now work remotely (Skype, Zoom and telephone).
Where available, I offer daytime, lunchtime and early morning (pre-work) appointments.
My Certificate in Psychodynamic Supervision (Distinction) is from the University of Leicester, where I studied with Michael Jacobs.
My core psychotherapy qualification is an M.A. in Integrative Psychotherapy and Counselling (Distinction), and my Integration is primarily Humanistic and Psychodynamic. I also hold qualifications in Cognitive Behavioural Therapies, Mediation and Hypnotherapy. I have further training in Lifespan Integration (Level Two) and a particular interest in Mindfulness.
My fees are on a sliding scale based on income, ranging from £60-90.
