I am an experienced humanistic psychotherapist, accredited by the United Kingdom Council for Psychotherapy. I did a five-year training at the Chiron Centre for Body Psychotherapy where I became fully qualified in 1991. Since then I have completed a wide variety of continued professional development courses—in trauma therapy, embodied relational therapy and many other fields. I have a PhD from the University of London. I am a full member of the UK Association of Humanistic Pychology Practitioners and abide by their code of ethics. My work integrates body psychotherapy with Gestalt and psychoanalytic approaches. It is also informed by skills such as Vipassana mindfulness meditation, yoga and tai chi which I have been practising throughout my adult life. And I am a qualified Laughter Yoga instructor, a musician and a musicologist. My practice is in Belsize Park, London NW3.
