MARCH 2020 UPDATE:
 I am continuing to work by offering telephone and remote consultations for the time being and 
have set up guidance about working in this way on my website. Please do read this in preparation of attending remote psychotherapy. I remain committed to working and supporting my patients through this difficult time.

I am an experienced, chartered clinical psychologist and psychoanalytic psychotherapist with 25 years of relevant work experience, including over 15 years of NHS experience. I have a proven track record of helping hundreds of people with wide-ranging problems. I am passionate about making a difference in the lives of my patients when facing the challenges modern life throws up for all of us.

WHAT TO EXPECT:
After careful consultation over one or two sessions, I will suggest the best way forward for your particular difficulties. I am realistic, flexible and grounded in my approach and can offer a range of different interventions, tailor-made to your specific needs. My work is informed by my NHS background and solid network with local GPs and services. If I feel that another service is better suited to address your presenting problem, then I will make that recommendation. 

I am experienced in working with people of diverse backgrounds and beliefs. I have a particular interest in helping people with key transition points in life, whether this is coping with new parenthood, empty nests, marriage, divorce, career changes, loss and trauma. 

CREDENTIALS:
When choosing a therapist, there are lots of people claiming to be qualified to deal with every problem under the sun. Do make sure you are in safe hands with an appropriately accredited practitioner. I am a senior member of the British Psychotherapy Foundation, where I qualified as a psychoanalytic psychotherapist in 2015. In addition, I hold a Masters degree in Clinical Psychology. I am registered with the British Psychological Society, Health & Care Professions Council, British Psychotherapy Foundation as well as the British Psychoanalytic Council and I am governed by the standards of conduct, performance and ethics of all these bodies. I also hold an updated DBS Enhanced Certificate for working with Adult
s and Children, re-issued in February 2020.  

SUPERVISION & TEACHING:
I am the Programme Director of Dynamic Interpersonal Therapy (DIT) at the Anna Freud Centre as well as 
a DIT trainer and supervisor. I work part-time as a senior psychotherapist in an NHS psychotherapy service. I have presented papers at conferences and am invited to teach internationally in Europe, China, Australia and the UK, including the UCL and Essex Clinical Psychology doctoral programmes. I regularly attend training and read widely to keep informed about my profession. Please get in touch if you want to arrange supervision of your DIT or other psychotherapy work.
