I do have availability I also offer evening sessions .

I specialise In helping people recover from addictions.

I provide a compassionate space to explore what drives your addiction. Recovery from addiction can often be described as a thawing out process, which means getting in touch with feelings of anger , rage resentment, sadness ,fear and  jealousy. We all need someone to turn to when in trouble, so I work on building that trusting relationship with the hope you can begin to open up to your true self by letting down your defences in a safe place which can be scary but also life - enhancing and life changing.  

What you can expect from me Is a genuine interest in your story with a desire to help you make healthier choices away from the shackles of addiction. 

The first session Is generally an Introductory session to see how I maybe able to help you, also if you would like to work with me.

I generally suggest 6 sessions then we review how things are going at Session three to see if therapy is helping. 

I offer short and long term therapy and try to be as flexible as possible with times and days , I hope to offer the same time and day.

Psychotherapist & Addiction Counsellor

Dip Couns Psychotherapist MBACP

I'm  specialised in the field of addiction and the recovery process. I'm  a qualified psychotherapist with extensive knowledge of mental health, addiction, and recovery. I have worked in various positions in my career, but my actual role is working with people in a person-centred approach being genuinely alongside them helping them in their journey of self-exploration and recovery.

I firmly believe anyone who wants to get better will get better. I have worked as a therapist for 24 years, I have worked with people at the top of their profession,  with the celebrities and the most disadvantaged and vulnerable people. The one thing they all had in common was addictions that they felt powerless to stop regardless of the consequences .

The highlights of my career are seeing people maintain their recovery and rebuilding their lives. 

I have also worked overseas helping to set up affordable treatment centres in the North of Thailand. I have worked on the island of Koh Chang, Thailand, in a treatment centre working with clients from a cognitive behavioural approach. Working with clients discharge plans and aftercare treatment which is imperative when leaving residential treatment.

On a personal level, I have received awards from the London Fire Brigade for bravery in rescuing individuals who were trapped in a fire. I have run two London Marathons for charity, one for the rehabilitation of addicted prisoners trust and one for children with leukaemia.

I have 24 years of knowledge and personal experience of change . I also know it takes courage to ask for help.

I want to work with anyone who wants to find meaning and purpose in their life to recover and get better. 

I specialise in helping people recover from addictions. Addiction is often a symptom of other underlying causes. During therapy we will explore what is underpinning your addiction. When we identify the core issues we will work together on a care plan for your on going recovery. Generally addiction has served a purpose in a person's life self medicating to suppress unresolved issues of grief  loneliness anger and abuse for instance. It takes courage to change.

I also work with non substance addiction gambling shopping and sex addiction often the effects are are similar to chemical addiction.

The 1st session is a good time to see if we can work together and if I can help you.

I also offer single session therapy with the offer of further treatment if required.

Available for face to face and online sessions.
