My Approach

Looking at past and present experiences can feel daunting. All too often it is difficult to find a non-judgmental space where it feels comfortable to process challenging feelings.

The therapeutic relationship you and I develop can become a safe space where you can make sense of your experiences, learn more about yourself and allow new understandings and perspectives to emerge. I am committed to working with you to help you gain a greater sense of empowerment and give you a space that it’s just yours.

I am not here to diagnose or fix problems, but to listen and explore with you what is going on. If you like the idea, we may also integrate creative approaches, including visualisation, imagery, journaling and art materials to bring further clarity to what you’re feeling. I can also support you to focus on and better understand the connection between your embodied and physical experiences and your thoughts and feelings.

My practice is gender, sexuality, relationship diversity (GSRD) affirmative and with sensitivity in cultural and racial positioning.

About Me

I'm a person-centred psychotherapist working both in person and online. I offer a creative and collaborative approach. I believe that everyone has a natural tendency for growth and change when given the opportunity and space to get in touch with their potential.

I work near West Hampstead (Mon), online (Tue) and near Finsbury Park and Holloway Road (Wed and Thurs).

I have worked in charities where I have helped people with a wide range of issues including traumatic experiences, and chronic health conditions. I have also supported people struggling with the stress of work and relationships, with identity issues, and with life transitions in the context of the current socio-political, environmental, and financial difficulties.
