I initially trained in psychodynamic psychotherapy nearly twenty years ago, however over time have trained in various evidence based processes alongside that training, which have proved to be a really effective and exciting addition to my working methods. These processes have been tested alongside findings in neuroscience which show how and why the brain develops symptoms and how these symptoms can be eradicated. Coherence Therapy, Internal Family Systems and EMDR are fast working yet long lasting and I feel confident about my abilities to bring about real change for those in pain.

I work with couples using the highly acclaimed Relational Life Institute's Therapy model created by Terrence Real.  

We are hot-wired to want relationships, they are what essentially makes us happy, but no one teaches us how to relate effectively.  Our relatively modern desire for our marriages or coupledom to last a lifetime and provide intimacy, safety and passion has stretched many of us to breaking point.  Our work together can not only heal the parts of you that have not necessarily been given the love and compassion they needed but we can do this together in the presence of the person you love.

I work face to face in rooms just behind Putney Bridge Tube and also online.  

My sessions are varied in length depending on whether I am working with the couple or the individual.  Individual sessions tend to be 50 mins long.  Couple sessions are normally an hour and a half.

I am an active participant in the therapeutic process.  We are all, by virtue of being human, struggling sometimes or behaving in ways that don't serve us.  I do not consider myself, nor do I present myself as a more evolved human being.  Our work together will be helpful because we are meeting in a democratic space.

If you make contact with me I will get back to you within 48 hours.  Please check your spam in case my response has gone in there.  We will then have a quick chat on the phone to ask and answer any questions you might have.  Then you can take some time to decide whether or not you'd like to proceed to an assessment.  I will send you an assessment form, a contract setting out how I work, and an introductory letter with all the instructions in there about times etc.  

I charge couples a sliding scale from £75 - £120 and individuals from £50 - £90 an hour.  This is dependent on income and we can discuss this when we meet.
