I am a Psychotherapist registered with the British Psychoanalytic Council and have been working in Private Practice since 1993. I offer either brief or longer term Counselling and Psychotherapy to individuals in my private practice in Childs Hill, near Golders Green, London. I have worked for many years in the helping professions beginning in social services and moving on to run a Bereavement Service for a number of years. I have been employed as a therapist in an Eating Disorders Clinic and continue to work with a number of people with eating difficulties. I have worked for many years in GP surgeries seeing many patients for both short and longer term therapy and gaining much experience of working with a very wide variety of issues. I have also supervised and consulted for a number of different organisations in the NHS, private and charitable sectors. I currently supervise in an organisation that works with women's issues. In addition, supervising and teaching trainees is a way of ensuring that I refresh my knowledge and understanding. In my experience people often come to therapy when they feel stuck, afraid, depressed or hurt about relationships that have gone wrong. They may be grappling with such feelings as anger, guilt, fear and jealousy and need to make sense of them. They may have lost direction and meaning and be afraid to live life to the full. During the course of therapy with me they have the opportunity to explore all these feelings and to learn new ways of dealing with difficulties.

I am committed to Continuing Professional Development (CPD) in Counselling and Psychotherapy. I abide by the Ethical Framework for Good Practice in Counselling and Psychotherapy of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP), the Code of Ethics of the British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC), the Code of Ethics of the UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) and the Code of Ethics of the Westminster Pastoral Foundation (WPF) Therapy London.

I have been working as a Counsellor and Psychotherapist for many years and am able to use my experience to work flexibly but safely with my clients. I am very aware that people trust me with their inner most fears and hopes and I am always mindful of the importance of working reliably and ethically in my practice. I aim to help people to develop as fully as possible whilst understanding that each individual needs to decide for themselves how deeply they wish to explore themselves.

I have much experience of working within my profession as a supervisor, mentor and teacher and take on responsibilities within my training organisation. This keeps me aware of changes and important developments in the profession both in theoretical and clinical practice. I feel passionately about the importance of understanding the complexity of inner life and have a deep commitment to my work.
