About me

I'm an accredited member of the National Counselling and Psychotherapy Society, which holds a register of therapists accredited by the Professional Standards Authority for Health and Social Care, a national regulatory body for healthcare professionals in the UK. I also have a DBS certificate.

I trained at King's College London University and at The College of Cognitive Behavioural Therapies London. I hold a BA (Hons) in Philosophy, a Certificate in Counselling and three postgraduate diplomas in CBT: a Diploma and Advanced Diploma in Cognitive Behavioural Counselling and Psychotherapy, and an Advanced Diploma in Integrative Cognitive Behavioural Counselling and Psychotherapy.

CBT is one of the main traditions in counselling and psychotherapy and there are different types of CBT. The types of CBT that I specialise in are: Rational Emotive Behavioural Therapy (REBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Therapy (CT) and Mindfulness-Based CBT. These approaches provide a range of different methods which have been extensively researched and shown to be very effective for helping to work through problems, stop getting caught up in ways thinking, feeling or acting that are having a negative impact and focus on creating positive change going forward.
