About me

My journey and training in Psychology, Counselling and Psychotherapy has evolved over the last 20 years. I completed a BSc in Psychology in 2002. Since that time I have attended numerous training courses completing the Foundation Course in Counselling at Regent’s University in 2007. I then trained as a bereavement Counsellor for Cruse in 2012 and as a volunteer Counsellor and at a private practice in central London while completing my professional training.

I completed my MA in Psychotherapy and Counselling at Regent’s University in 2018 and my dissertation was on the topic of Resilience which is of particular interest to me both in terms of its role in therapy and what makes one person more resilient than another. I have also completed additional training on other therapies and topics such as CBT, Transactional Analysis, Anger Management, Solution Focused Therapy, Suicide, Sudden and Traumatic Death and PTSD.

Much of my training and voluntary work was completed while also working in various senior roles in the corporate world. I began my career as an investment banker in the City and the last 10+ years of my career were in HR consulting. Specifically, I worked with organisations undergoing major change and restructuring often resulting in employees being made redundant and requiring outplacement services. I also supported clients with leadership development, cultural change, behavioural change training, coaching, building resilience, and employee wellbeing. I have worked with many leading global organization in most sectors and industries both in the private sector and the NHS.

The key focus in my work has always been helping organisations and individuals to reach their full potential. These experiences have given me real insight into the many challenges and demands we all face in the current world and gives me a lot to draw upon when helping clients in the therapeutic setting.
