About Me

I have been a psychotherapist and counsellor for more than twenty years. I have an MA in Existential Psychotherapy and a post-graduate diploma in Counselling, utilising a cognitive behavioural model. I continue to develop my clinical skills through ongoing professional development opportunities.

I have extensive experience working with individuals and couples in a variety of clinical settings. I have worked as a counsellor and psychotherapist in the voluntary, charitable and private sectors, in both day care and residential settings. I worked for a number of years for the NHS in the Sleep Disorders Centre at St Thomas’ hospital where I was involved in a large research project looking at the effectiveness of Cognitive Behavioural Therapy in the treatment of insomnia.

I have particular expertise in working with insomnia, anxiety disorders, obsessive compulsive disorder, and work-related stress. I also have a reputation for working proactively with couples experiencing relationship difficulties.

In addition to my work in private practice, I provided group clinical supervision to drug workers in a number of London prisons, and also co-ordinated a group therapy programme that I designed, to support chaotic drug users in the London borough of Tower Hamlets.

I was a co-contributor with Prof Simon du Plock on a chapter entitled An Existential Perspective on Addiction for the publication Existential Perspectives in Human Issues, (Palgrave Macmillan 2005).

I conduct psychotherapy sessions via Skype for a number of overseas clients.
