My approach is broadly constructivist- this means that I believe that our lived experiences and our perceptions of the world around us are constantly influencing and reinforcing each other. But this also enables us to heal and grow, because changing our understanding and perceptions - which happens naturally through life as well as through therapeutic intervention- can change the emotions and feelings related to the memories of our experiences. This means that troubling feelings, memories, beliefs and behaviours are open to healing, repair and renewal, and that we don’t need to continue feeling stuck or living with symptomatic emotional pain. I am trained in many methods that provide ways to achieve this change, and most of them are relatively brief. Psychotherapy with me is transparent, pragmatic, collaborative and tailored to each person and their objectives. Ultimately, the optimal solutions are different for every person so there is no “right answer” other than the best answer for you.
I have been in clinical practice for over 15 years and have supervised other trainee and registered psychotherapists since 2012. Based in Stansted, Essex. Registered provider of psychotherapy for BUPA, AXA and other private health insurers. Appointments: Monday- Thursday 8am-8pm. Currently working on phone/ video only.

Like all UKCP registered psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors I can work with a wide range of issues, but here are some areas in which I have a special interest or additional experience.
