I completed a rigorous and lengthy post-graduate training at WPF Therapy. WPF is recognised as one of the leading counselling and psychotherapy training organisations in the UK.
I am also trained in Interpersonal Psychotherapy. IPT is a time-limited therapy that is recommended in the NICE guidelines specifically for the treatment of depression and eating disorders.
I am currently undertaking advanced study in Intensive Short-Term Dynamic Psychotherapy. ISTDP aims to resolve emotional problems as rapidly as possible. Where appropriate, I also use EMDR which can accelerate the healing process after a traumatic experience.
I am a full member of WPF's graduate organisation The Foundation for Psychotherapy and Counselling which ensures the highest standards of professional practice. I am registered with UKCP. This means that I am properly trained, qualified, professional and accountable.
I am also a professional member of BACP.
I work in the NHS and in private practice. In addition, I work as an associate with a leading employment assistance provider and with a leading local specialist provider of psychological therapies.
I possess extensive experience gained in school and university education, having worked with a wide range of young people in different settings.
