Experienced & Highly Effective Psychotherapist & Counsellor
Kings Cross, Shoreditch, Pimlico & Chiswick
I'm an experienced and highly effective psychotherapist and counsellor with more than 7 years experience and have worked in a number of varied fields. Initially I worked for 2 years as a student counsellor at London Metropolitan University before working in the NHS for 3 years in the London Boroughs of Croydon and Lambeth working with GP referrals. In recent years I have concentrated on running a succesful private practice in Central London.

My fees are £50 per hour and I work from three locations in Central London -

Tuesdays I work in Camden at the Gestalt Centre, 15-23 St Pancras Way, NW1 0PT.
Wednesdays I work in Pimlico at Pimlico Counsellors 6A Bessborough Place, SW1V 3SG.
Thursdays I work in Shoreditch at Art of Thought, 147 Commercial Street E1 6BJ.

In addition I offer some lunchtime sessions on Tuesdays, Thursdays & Fridays from my home in Chiswick, W3 7AT

For more information, please contact me.
Education/Training
I have an M.A. in Existential Psychotherapy & Counselling from the University of Sheffield.
Bio
As an integrative psychotherapist I draw on a number of approaches and enjoy working with a wide spectrum of clients. However my particular interests are helping clients work through childhood and family issues and support them in making sense of often complex family dynamics. I am also passionate about the positive effects the Buddhist practices of mindfulness and compassion can have on our well being and our relationships. I am excited by the new discoveries in neuroscience which are showing both the power of mindfulness and compassion to change us for the better and how fundamentally relational we are: we are wounded in relationship and we heal in relationship.

While I think that mental illness can be a useful way of understanding our experience, as an existentially trained therapist I see therapy as an opportunity to make sense of our life experience and find our own meaning. I work relationally, and offer a warm and accepting relationship. We area social species and only a new experience of relationship can change our way of being in the world.

Increasingly I view anxiety and depression as symptoms of a way of life that neglects our connections with one another and is making us stressed and sad. I am currently working on a book, the Connected Self, for more information visit my blog, the Connected Self.
Memberships
I am an accredited member of the UKCP (United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy) which means I accrued 450 supervised client hours in work placements in addition to my training.
