I have worked as a psychotherapist both in the charity sector, as well as in private practice. I have experience of working with a range of different psychological and emotional issues.

In addition to my private practice I also work part-time as an incoming client Assessor for Ealing Abbey Counselling Service which offers low-cost therapy, aiming to make counselling an option for everyone.

Before training as a psychotherapist I worked for over 40 years in government and the NHS. That work gave me insight into the dynamics and significance of our relationships and fuelled my growing interest in people, and how they get to be the way they are. It is our relationship with ourselves and with others which I believe are at the heart of how we feel and how we behave.

I have enhanced DBS clearance and professional indemnity insurance. I engage in ongoing professional development and receive regular clinical supervision to enhance my practice.
