About

I am a registered psychotherapist with the Humanistic and Integrative Psychotherapy College (HIPC) of the UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) and abide by its Code of Ethics and Professional Practice. I was initially registered via the UKCP Member Organisation, UK Association for Humanistic Psychology, with whom I was also accredited, and enjoyed the privilege of being a previous Chair, but am now a Direct Member of UKCP via HIPC. I am also on the UKCP register of supervisors for counsellors and psychotherapists, and am a member of the British Psychological Society (BPS) and of its Psychotherapy and Transpersonal Psychology (or Spiritual Psychology) Sections, and am a former member of the Confederation for Analytical Psychology.

I taught psychology, counselling and psychotherapy with the Open University’s Faculty of Arts and Social Sciences until retiring from my role in 2022 to give more time to consultancy/supervision, psychotherapy, writing, and being in nature. I also enjoy membership of the newly formed Environmental Psychology Section of BPS.
