I am an integrative and relational psychotherapist working in private practice and I offer space for you to explore with me issues that you may be struggling with or which may be preventing you from living your life as fully as you would like. Maybe you feel overwhelmed and do not know where to turn? I will invite you to bring your feelings, thoughts and concerns so that we can work collaboratively to understand better what is happening in your life today and perhaps how previous events and patterns may be affecting you. I will neither judge nor direct you but will offer a relationship with empathy and active engagement.
I trained at the Minster Centre and have an M.A. in Integrative Psychotherapy and Counselling and a Diploma in Counselling. I am a registered member of the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) and abide by its Ethical Standards. I am a registered member of the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (MBACP Reg.) and work within the BACP’s Ethical Framework. In addition to my work in private practice I have experience of a variety of settings including a university counselling service, an NHS community mental health trust, a Mind counselling service and other local community-based counselling organisations. I am committed to continuing professional development and participate in regular ongoing training.
At our initial appointment we can discuss your hopes and expectations and whether it is appropriate for us to work for a fixed number of sessions or in a more open-ended manner.
I practice from premises in Knebworth and Letchworth in Hertfordshire and will offer appointments based on your convenience and our mutual availability.
