MA, QTS, MBACP Reg
I am a qualified psychodynamic psychotherapist specialising in couple and individual therapy, helping clients explore their relationships, understand themselves better, and create meaningful change in their lives.
Qualifications & Training
I trained at Tavistock Relationships, an internationally renowned provider of relationship counselling, as a couple and individual psychodynamic psychotherapist. I obtained a clinical qualification in Couple and Individual Psychotherapy, accredited by the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP). I also hold an MA in Couple and Individual Psychotherapy from the University of East London.
My Approach
I work with couples and individuals and have a special area of interest in how we behave and communicate in relationships. Psychodynamic therapy is about working with the unconscious and that would include thinking about childhood experiences, relationships with parental figures, previous couple relationships and role models. We can explore how these have affected a current relationship or how these impact challenges around staying in a relationship.
Additional Experience
I also hold a QTS teaching qualification and my work with children has given me a broad understanding of child development. In my work with couples I have found this useful around parenting challenges and the dynamic between the partners in the couple when they don't agree over parenting decisions.
I have previously worked as a visiting clinician at Tavistock Relationships and I attend regular supervision and CPD events to discuss my work and enhance my training and experience with clients.

I work within the codes of ethics of my member organisations and comply with the current data protection regulations, which maintain confidentiality and ensure data is not passed on to any third party without your permission.
