Existential Psychotherapist

What is existential psychotherapy?

Existential Psychotherapy is a way of practising psychotherapy that I like because of the emphasis it places on possibility, freedom and choice.

I work with clients to help them to develop a deeper and richer understanding of their world. There is a focus on the experience of life as opposed to just the contents of it.

My training

I undertook my qualifying training at Regent’s University in London, UK.

After gaining my Foundation Certificate, I engaged in an integrative Post-Graduate Diploma covering the three main schools of psychotherapeutic thought: Psychodynamic, Existential and Person Centred / Humanistic.

I completed my training and gained UKCP accreditation through an Advanced Diploma in Existential Psychotherapy, allowing me to focus on the exploration of existential philosophy and its application to psychotherapy.

I gained my clinical experience working at Balham Community Counselling Service, a low cost service based in south London.
