I am a BPC accredited psychodynamic psychotherapist and a BACP accredited psychodynamic Counsellor.  I have been working in private practice in North London since 2011.  I am also a BPC (British Psychoanalytical Council) accredited DIT (Dynamic Interpersonal Therapy) practitioner.  DIT is a short term model, (16 sessions) recommended by NHS Nice guidelines for anxiety/depression.   I have worked in various settings from a busy GP practice to an addictions unit.  I regularly attend critical incidents as a critical incident consultant.  I also worked in a crisis unit whilst I was training to be a therapist.  This was an invaluable experience as I was at the cutting edge of mental health issues.  I used to work in the media industry and decided to retrain to become  a counsellor in 2003.  My approach is psychodynamic this involves exploring patterns in behaviour as well as finding ways to connect with subconscious processes.  I  adopt a solution focused approach when working in the short term.  I have a great deal fo experience offering brief therapy and am an EAP affiliate with various organisations.   I am a recognised health insurance practitioner with Bupa, AXA, Aviva, WPA, Vitality, Cigna and Pru Health
