My credentials
My experience as a therapist stretches as far back as 1997, when I qualified as a person-centred and existential counsellor and psychotherapist after taking part in the highly regarded three-year FACETS programme at London's City University. This founding stage of my professional development included more than 750 hours of study with such eminent tutors as Maria Luca and David White.
Ten years later I embarked on training at the Quest Institute in Regent's College, London, under the world-renowned originator of Cognitive Hypnotherapy, Trevor Silvester (former Ethics Director and current Supervision Director of the UK's leading accreditation body, the National Council for Hypnotherapy), gaining a Distinction in the Diploma in Cognitive Hypnotherapy and a Practitioner's Certificate in Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP). I also trained in EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) and studied the work of many other leading exponents of the most modern and sophisticated psychological therapy techniques.
