BACKGROUND
How I came to this work.
I am a Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist with over twenty-five years of clinical practice. I hold a Master's degree in CBT and REBT with Distinction, and am accredited by the BABCP. I trained in NHS Scotland, worked across NHS Trusts and private hospitals in England, and have been in independent practice in the City of London for the past fifteen years.
My career began in NHS Scotland in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry, working in multidisciplinary teams on assessment and formulation. After relocating to England, I worked across NHS Trusts and private hospitals before moving into independent practice in the City of London.
For the past fifteen years I have been based in private practice in the City of London, working primarily with professionals in banking and law. I also provide clinical supervision to other therapists.
APPROACH
Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, with the depth that integrative practice asks for.
My primary modality is Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. I hold a Master's degree in REBT and CBT (Distinction) and have undertaken further specialist training in Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy (REBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), coaching, and bereavement counselling. This training enables me to adopt a flexible, integrative approach, tailoring my work to meet the individual needs of each client.
I am known for my thoughtful, client-centred approach, combining clinical expertise with practical strategies to support meaningful and lasting change. I prioritise clients' comfort, working to create a setting where they feel able to open up. My warm demeanour and considered insight help put even the most anxious clients at ease, allowing them to build trust and explore their thoughts freely.
WHO I WORK WITH
Adults, couples, children, and those who work in high-pressure environments.
I see clients for individual sessions and for couple sessions, tailoring my approach to meet the unique needs of each person. Over the past fifteen years I have worked extensively with corporate organisations, namely banks and law firms, providing psychological therapy to professionals operating in high-pressure environments. I also provide clinical supervision to other therapists, and I work with children and young people [CHILDREN AND YOUNG PEOPLE SCOPE — pending Henry confirmation that the practice still offers this at the new SERENITÀ launch].
- Adults, working through anxiety, depression, OCD, PTSD, bereavement, and the other named specialisms.
- Couples, in joint sessions.
- Children and young people [SCOPE — pending Henry confirmation that the practice still takes children at the new SERENITÀ launch, given that the City of London base is corporate-facing].
- Senior corporate professionals in banking, law, and adjacent City roles.
- Other therapists, for clinical supervision.
