I have been a professional counsellor and therapist for over 30 years. During this time I have worked in various therapeutic settings including within a busy NHS IAPT Psychological Therapy Service as Clinical Director and Clinical Lead - I also have my own Private Practice. My clinical time is spent seeing individual clients, either privately or NHS referred, and this is usually on a weekly basis. However, more frequently I am working with couples and groups and offer clinical supervision to other therapists.
I have gained many thousands of hours clinical experience using psychodynamic, CBT and integrative based therapies, as well as TA, Solution-Focused and hypno-psychotherapeutic approaches. I am also interesting in IFS and coherence therapy.
