I trained at Regents University, in the School of Psychotherapy and Counselling Psychology in London, where I completed a Master's degree in Psychotherapy & Counselling and an Advanced Diploma in Integrative Psychotherapy.

 

In addition to my private psychotherapy practice, I have over 14 years of experience working in the field of social care with a varied client group, including those with physical and learning difficulties.

 

For nine years, I worked supportively with people with mental health problems in the public and private sectors.

 

My psychotherapy experience also includes work with students in higher education within a university counselling service and for MIND with a diverse and varied client group.

 

As an Integrative psychotherapist, I have received training in various theoretical models, which I can draw on to suit the types of issues that each client brings and as appropriate to what they hope to gain from therapy.

 

However, the main theoretical models I draw on are psychoanalytic theory, Attachment-based models, and Existential/Humanistic psychotherapy as informed by Existential philosophy.
