About Me

If you're looking for a therapist, you’ve probably already tried to work things through by yourself – but the worry, distress or unhappiness remains. That’s when psychotherapy can help. I offer a safe, confidential and non-judgemental space to talk. I believe in the value of feeling heard and understood, and that talking to a trained therapist can make a genuine difference to a person’s life.

If you are new to therapy, you may ask how it is different to talking to a friend. My answer is that the process is not the same. I am here to listen, and I mean really listen to what you are going through, without any preconceived ideas about who you are or what you have experienced in life. Together we will reflect on what is troubling you: perhaps loneliness, anxiety, loss, relationships difficulties, a trauma that won’t go away or a sense of feeling low and unsatisfied with life. In this process of talking, you will come to understand yourself better – and once you do, things can shift, past experiences can be processed, narratives reframed, and change can happen.

My commitment is to bring my professional experience to these conversations. I am an Integrative Psychotherapist, meaning I draw on my broad knowledge base of different schools of psychotherapeutic thought to offer a flexible and creative approach tailored to your needs. With further advanced training in Existential Psychotherapy, I will also attend to the challenges, limitations and possibilities of life as you experience it. Together we will explore how to find meaning in your life.

Currently, I am dedicated to my private practice. I have previously worked at a busy NHS GP practice, Croydon University Hospital, a large hospice and a private practice in Mayfair. I have also taught on the Advanced Diploma in Existential Psychotherapy at Regent’s University, and provided supervision to MA psychotherapy students there. My own academic background is in Social Anthropology, and I believe that my long-standing interest in people’s social and cultural beliefs strengthens my psychotherapy practice.

I am a warm, compassionate and thoughtful therapist. My style is conversational and I welcome feedback from clients about how they experience our work together. I regularly review sessions to encourage a collaborative process.

I offer an initial free no commitment telephone consultation to anyone interested in working with me.
