I am a fully accredited, experienced psychotherapist and counsellor working in Central London and Hereford. I provide a confidential, non-judgemental and accepting space for you to explore your emotional issues and difficulties. The therapy I offer is for You. It is your time to explore within a safe therapeutic relationship the aspects of your life that are leaving you feeling lost, sad, lonely, confused, angry, anxious, depressed or desperate, Together we can find the lightness in the dark.

A common question asked by those seeking therapy is, " I need help, but I don't know why?". There is no easy answer - humans are complex. But it is my belief that the true expert on you is yourself - you just might not know it. You may be questioning why you feel like you don't belong, why your relationships seem to fail, why you can't be honest with others or yourself, or what might happen if you say no - or yes - to people. Being able to understand how and why we've taken our particular journey through life is key to accepting ourselves and living the life we truly want.

I wonder what it feels like to find yourself here, looking for some kind of support? Maybe you are struggling to 'make sense' of what you've been experiencing in your life recently? Many of my clients inhabit a crowded yet empty world, in which they cannot easily 'hear' themselves, or feel that they are not 'understood' by those around them. Perhaps you feel a little like this too? My first hope as a counsellor is that working collaboratively you will feel both heard and understood - maybe for the first time. When this happens, we begin to develop the inner resources needed to discover and engage with who we truly are.

Life is full of challenges, and we can all struggle to cope with the impact of difficult events or circumstances. Therapy can be a useful support in navigating tricky periods and can help people deal with distress in a way that minimises its impact on quality of life. I work with individuals in a collaborative way, using a process of formulation to develop a shared understanding of psychological difficulties. The direction and content of our work will depend on an individual’s personal goals for the future and can range from exploratory work to a more structured approach focusing on the development of self-management skills.
