Psychotherapist & Addiction Counsellor

Dip Couns Psychotherapist MBACP

I am specialised in the field of addiction and recovery process. I am a qualified psychotherapist with extensive knowledge of mental health, addiction, and recovery. I have worked in various positions in his career, but my actual role is working with people in a person-centred approach being genuinely alongside them wanting to help them in their journey of self-exploration and recovery.

I firmly believe anyone who wants to get better will get better. I have worked as a therapist for nearly 18 years, have worked with people at the top of their profession, and I have also worked with celebrities and the most disadvantaged and vulnerable people. The one thing that they all had in common was the dependence to addiction.

The highlights of my career are seeing people maintain their recovery and rebuilding their lives. I have worked overseas helping to set up an affordable treatment centre in the North of Thailand. I have also worked on the island of Koh Chang, Thailand, in a treatment centre working with clients from a cognitive behavioural approach.

On a personal level, I have received awards from the London Fire Brigade for bravery in rescuing individuals who were trapped in a fire. I have run two London Marathons for charity, one for the rehabilitation of addicted prisoners and one for children with leukaemia.

I want to work with anyone who wants to find meaning and purpose in their life, recover and get better. 

I specialise in helping people recover from addiction. A substance is often a symptom of other underlying causes. During therapy we will explore what is underpinning your addiction. When we identify the core issues we will work together on a care plan for your on going recovery. Generally addiction has served a purpose in a person's life self medicating to suppress unresolved issues of ,grief or loneliness for instance. It takes courage to change.

I also work with non substance addiction gambling shopping and sex addiction often the effect are are similar to chemical addiction.

The 1st session is a good time to see if we can work together and if I can help you.

I also offer single session therapy with the offer of further treatment if required.

The first session is a consultation session and a good time to see if I can help you , also if you would like to work with me.

It's a 50 minute session when you can tell me what's bringing you to therapy.

I work short term, long term, and open-ended I do recommend at least 5 sessions with a review at 5th session to see if therapy is helping and if you would like to continue therapy.
