My Approach

I graduated from Metanoia in 2005 with MSc in Integrative Psychotherapy (Distinction in Viva) and have been registered as an adult psychotherapist since then.
I am also registered as a child and adolescent psychotherapist and have a certificate in systemic family therapy (AFT accredited) a certificate in groupwork and
In 2012 I qualified as a supervisor (Cascade)
I work integratively drawing on my many years of training and experience and adapt my approach depending on the client - I don't believe that "one size fits all"! While I can and do offer online work, I think face to face is often better if that's possible.

About Me

I'm a very experienced adult, child and adolescent psychotherapist and supervisor and trainer and have been working as a psychotherapist for around 25 years and with children and families in different settings for my whole working life. I worked for the past 18 years as clinical lead for a counselling service in a large boarding school, and previous to this was senior psychotherapist in a large UK fostering agency for 5 years. I've delivered training on many subjects to counsellors, carers, social workers and teachers including self harm and suicide, and facilitated groups for psychotherapy training courses and for foster carers and for young people and children. I've supervised privately and in my work setting and spent many years running supervision groups in an agency setting with trainees.
If you are interested in working with me, please email in the first instance and we can set up a time to either speak on the phone or meet.
