UKCP has moved to York House, 221 Pentonville Road, London N1 9UZ. We are updating the address listed in all our documents, please bear with us as we make these changes.
The aim of my work is to help people to lead happier and more fulfilling lives through improved relationships. To do this I try to open up communication channels - not only words, but emotions too. I often find that change begins to happen when people are moved. It's a matter of the heart probably more than the intellect.
I am a qualified Systemic Family Therapist and use a flexible approach to working with individuals, couples, families and teams or organizations. By "flexible" I mean I use a range of tools - anything that I think will help my clients. I also share relevant information with clients and encourage them to learn more and to try new approaches to old problems. I work on a private basis from therapy centres in South Woodford (London E18) and Buckhurst Hill (IG9)
I have long experience first as a field social worker mostly dealing with children, adolescents and families, and adult mental health. Subsequently I worked as a specialist Psychiatric Social Worker and Team Manager in Tier 3 CAMHS (Child and Adolescent Mental Health Services). This involved working as part of a multi-disciplinary team with more complex cases.
Additionally I have experience of setting up and running training in Peer Support in a number of schools, ranging from Primary through to 6th Form and Colleges. This has involved consulting with senior management teams on policy matters including Safegaurding and Anti-Bullying.
Like all UKCP registered psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors I can work with a wide range of issues, but here are some areas in which I have a special interest or additional experience.
