About Me

I am a fully qualified and UKCP registered Psychotherapist and I work with individuals and couples from my practice in Forest Gate, East London. I am Transactional Analysis trained but have interests in many other approaches and tailor my approach to suit the client. I believe the relationship between therapist and client is fundamental to change and work in a relational manner. I am also a PTSTA (Provisional Teaching and Supervising Transactional Analyst) and have a diploma in Relational Supervision.

I have over 20 years counselling and psychotherapy experience helping people who are dealing with a wide range of issues, including confidence, depression, bereavement, anxiety, low self-esteem, relationship problems, marital breakdown, sexual problems, addictions, alcoholism, eating disorders, problems arising from childhood experiences, abuse, bullying, feelings of emptiness, loneliness, living with HIV, workplace issues and much more.

My clients have ranged from children working through issues around their parent's divorce through to CEO's of large organisations with feelings of inadequacy.

I have worked in a variety of settings; in private practise, prisons and mental health organisations and across the spectrum to home visits and residential retreats.
