I hold Fellowships in the International Association of Psychotherapy and Counselling, the Royal Society of Public Health, and the Royal Society of Arts.

My Approach
I have an eclectic background in entrepreneurship, senior management, pastoral care, and mental health advocacy. This
informs my approach to therapy.
I was previously the Co-Founder and Managing Director of a successful consultancy company with an international client base (Europe, South America, Africa, Asia and Australasia), and have lived and worked in Scandinavia and New Zealand.
As well as working as an Economist, Research & Development Manager, Chief Examiner, and Learning & Service Innovation Manager, I have been a Director and of three Charities based in the UK, and a Not-for-Profit Organisation in Belgium.
For me, effective therapy comes from a positive and meaningful interaction between the client and the therapist. Building up a strong rapport is vital.
It is my view that life experience should be brought to bear in the therapy room. Therapists with a broad background can facilitate new avenues of exploration that benefit the client. As the famous Psychiatrist Dr. Carl Jung said: “Know all the theories, master all the techniques, but as you touch a human soul be just another human soul.”
This ethos is very much part of the three strands of service I offer:
Training
I offer bespoke training in a number of different areas for both therapists and clients.
These include courses such as: Living Life with Meaning, Psychotherapy for Bipolar Disorder, and Meaning-Based Approaches to Addiction.
Logotherapy
I offer clients Logotherapy - a talking therapy that helps us to find meaning in our struggles.
​
Logotherapy is recognized as a scientifically based school of psychotherapy by the American Psychological Association, the American Psychiatric Association, and the American Medical Society.
This approach has a wide-range of applications, and is used as a standalone therapy, or in combination with another.
EMDR Therapy
I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), a gold-standard therapy for Trauma (Post Traumatic Stress Disorder). It also has applications in treating phobias, anxiety and depression.
