Information
I see clients at my home in Highgate, North London. It is a
residential street with easy parking.
If requested, I also have facilities to see clients in the consulting rooms at
Regents College, London NW1.
I am both a keen gardener and an attentive responsive
psychotherapist. Just as in a garden there may be dark corners inhibiting growth, so it
is sometimes in people’s lives. Psychotherapy helps to cut back the emotional
tangles and, within a safe relationship, tries to understand the bad feelings, where
they’ve come from and to ask why they’re still lingering. Psychotherapy can
begin to lighten the shadows.
I work with a psychodynamic approach. I also have a training in family therapy and see the context of people's lives as being very important in understanding the sort of difficulties which bring them to therapy.
Mostly I work long-term but am also willing to offer short-term counselling and certainly recognise its value where a longer commitment isn't possible.
I work with individuals and with couples.
As well as my private clinical work, I am also Honorary Visiting Fellow at the School of Psychotherapy & Counselling at Regent's College. This title was conferred 'for outstanding academic and clinical contributions to the School.'
