Seeking counselling or psychotherapy can seem a daunting process. You need some-one who will can offer a combination of respect, confidentiality, skill, knowledge, and experience. This is a combination I offer.

My approach is both human and professional. I have had over fourteen years experience in private practice, and over sixteen years experience of working with mental health issues in hospitals, therapeutic communities, and homeless hostels. During this time I have developed a particular interest in eating disorders, psychosomatic illnesses in general; abuse issues; and childhood trauma.


I am a Professional member of the Association of Group and Individual Psychotherapy, and I abide by the code of ethics of both the UKCP and the BACP. I practice in central London. My main practice is close to Kings Cross and St. Pancreas international stations, so transport links are very good. I also practice in consultation rooms in EC2 which is convenient for City, Barbican, Camden and Islington, and London Bridge.

BUPA RECOGNISED PRACTIONER

I am experienced in treating a broad spectrum of psychological complaints such as:

eating disorders;

problems with body image;

psychosomatic illnesses;

abuse (sexual, emotional, physical) ;

childhood trauma;

addiction;

depression;

stress;

chronic fatigue;

anxiety;

loss;

bereavement;

depression;

emotional crisis/breakdown;

psychiatric illness;

irrational fears.

However, you may not be able to identify what your problems are, but rather have a vague feeling of being blocked and that your life is limited, stunted in some way. Perhaps you feel locked into repeating patterns of behaviour.

I provide a safe environment for the exploration of issues enabling release from fear, and crippling limitation, and I facilitate the development of a strong sense of self, through which a greater quality of life can be realised.

Specialist areas include eating disorders: anorexia and bulimia nervosa, binge eating, and problems with body image (see separate page); and psychosomatic illnesses in general; abuse issues; and childhood trauma.

Practice location.

My main practice is close to Kings Cross and St. Pancreas international stations: transport links are very good. The nearest tube station is Caledonian Road on the Piccadilly Line. Metered parking is available closeby.

I also see people in consultation rooms in EC2 which is particularly convenient for people working in the City. The nearest tube station is Old Street on the Northern line).
