I am an experienced, fully qualified counsellor and psychotherapist accredited by the BACP, and registered with the UKCP. I have worked within the NHS, a number of other mental health-related organisations, and for 20 years in private practice.

I work on both a short-term and a long-term basis with individuals and couples: I aim to provide a safe, confidential environment in which it is possible to explore the nature of anxieties, problems or other issues which may be getting in the way of a happy, fulfilling life.

My modality is relational, psychodynamic therapy using the frame of Transactional Analysis, although I do integrate other approaches where appropriate.
