I am a highly experienced Systemic Psychotherapist trained at the Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust in London. Alongside my core systemic training, I am a Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT) therapist, trained through British Isles DBT, and a specialist trauma therapist utilizing DBT-Prolonged Exposure (DBT-PE).
Alongside my private practice, I hold a position within the National and Specialist CAMHS DBT Team at South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust (SLaM). Here, I work with young people and families navigating severe emotional dysregulation, complex trauma, and acute distress within tertiary NHS mental health services.
In my private practice, I offer specialized therapeutic support tailored to:
Parents and Carers: Supporting parents of children and young people who are experiencing severe emotional distress, behavioural dysregulation, and trauma. I offer systemic and DBT-informed strategies to foster family resilience, stabilize high-arousal environments, and strengthen parent-child dynamics.
Adults: Providing evidence-based, trauma-focused therapy (including DBT-PE) to process traumatic experiences, reduce PTSD symptoms, and build effective emotional regulation skills.
Couples: Working systemically to help partners navigate relational conflict, deepen mutual understanding, and rebuild connection during challenging life transitions or periods of high stress.
My clinical practice integrates the relational depth and contextual focus of systemic psychotherapy with the structured, skill-based framework of DBT and trauma protocols. This enables me to provide compassionate, highly targeted interventions that respect the unique complexities of each individual, couple, and family system.
I am a UKCP-registered Systemic Psychotherapist, DBT Therapist, and Clinical Supervisor trained at the Tavistock and Portman, DBT British Isles, and the Institute of Psychiatry, Psychology & Neuroscience (IoPPN). My clinical background includes extensive experience within NHS Specialist CAMHS and private practice.
Like all UKCP registered psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors I can work with a wide range of issues, but here are some areas in which I have a special interest or additional experience.
