Hello
And welcome to my website.
I’m a UKCP and BACP registered Integrative psychotherapist and have over 14 years experience as a psychotherapist. I'm based in central London and offer face to face and online counselling and psychotherapy sessions.
Are you suffering anxiety or feeling down? Or going through a tough time in a relationship or with family? Perhaps you’ve suffered a loss of some kind?
The events and life experiences we go through can leave us feeling lost, confused, angry, perhaps weak, and sometimes deeply sad; they may lead to a questioning of our lives and even who we are as individuals. Underneath these unhappy experiences, I think we have far more resources than we realise and that the experience of being listened to and understood, can help us tap into those hidden strengths, enabling us to discover our best way forward.
In therapy sessions I work in a relational and collaborative way, providing a safe space where you can speak in confidence, will be listened to without judgment and taken seriously. I’ll encourage you to slow down, pause... and approach yourself with curiosity and compassion, not self criticism (which so often derails understanding ourselves better). This helps you see yourself and what is happening in your life with more clarity. As an integrative psychotherapist I tailor my work in response to each individual, their personality and needs. In addition to talking about any current difficulties, we explore how past events and experiences, particularly from childhood, have shaped you and may continue to impact your life today, often in unseen and unhelpful ways (e.g. repetitive thought patterns). Central to my approach is the belief that self-awareness is key to well-being.
Over the last 15 years I've had the opportunity to work with people of all ages, from many different backgrounds and cultures. My experience includes working with issues such as trauma, anxiety, depression, bereavements and loss, family or relationship difficulties, long term illness, life transitions, infertility.
I'm a UKCP Registered Integrative psychotherapist (MUKCP), Independent member of BACP and a Graduate member of the British Psychological Society (mBPS). See About Me.
