Counsellor and Psychotherapist

Welcome to my website

I am a   BACP  registered psychodynamic psychotherapist and counsellor.  In addition to my private practice  I work as a school counsellor in an Oxford preparatory school and  as a bereavement counsellor and supervisor for Oxfordshire  Cruse.


I trained as a bereavement counsellor with Oxfordshire Cruse in 2008 and have continued to work with them  since then. In 2015  I qualified as a supervisor for  Cruse. From 2008  - 2012 I trained as a   psychodynamic counsellor and  psychotherapist at  Rewley House, Oxford, which is part of the Oxford University Department  for Continuing Education. I completed  my Postgraduate  Certificate  in Counselling  in 2009, my Postgraduate Diploma in Psychodynamic Practice in 2011, and    my  MSt  in Psychodynamic Practice in 2012.


I have 10 years  clinical experience working with bereaved adults  at  Cruse  and with young people  with a range of difficulties during my training placement  in a Wantage secondary school and currently in an Oxford preparatory school.  In my private practice, I  work in a  quiet consulting room in my own home in  South Oxford, a short walk from Oxford City Centre, where I see adults and young people.
