About me
Psychotherapy is a five year training and required me to see a therapist myself, so I know what it feels like to be a client.
My academic training was important as a foundation but what I value more is the relationship with clients.
Qualifications
I hold an MSc in Integrative Psychotherapy from the Metanoia Institute in London, which is affiliated to Middlesex University. I hold previous qualifications in social work and teaching.
Accredidations
I am a Registered Practitioner/Accredited Therapist with the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) and an affiliated member of the Metanoia Institute.
Experience
I work as a counsellor, psychotherapist, supervisor and facilitator and tutor.
I have over twenty years experience in counselling and psychotherapy and spent nineteen years working in a Hospice in the Thames Valley.
I receive referrals from a number of sources including general practitioners.
Code of ethics
I adhere to the UKCP Ethics for Counselling and Psychotherapy.
Continuing professional development
I continue to train each year so that I keep myself up to date. I am currently part of a group developing trainings around power and oppression, and a peer reading group to enable continued curiosity and challenge to ideas.
