Are you someone who is feeling stuck or alone, struggling with depression or anxiety? Sometimes we go through low points in life and need some support to get through it. I offer a non-judgemental and a confidential space for all my clients. I work with my clients to heal from traumatic/painful experiences. I help clients to learn to value themselves, increase their self-worth and being their authentic selves. Whether your goal is to overcome depression/anxiety, or feel like you've lost direction in life, I will endeavour to assist you to reach your goal. I am in my late 40's and have also been through my own healing journey.

Do you often feel broken? Or feel like you're never enough? These common thoughts often cross many of our minds, yet some of us are unable to shake it off. Some may feel it’s all they have ever lived with, this sense of not being enough for those around us. Having poor confidence and low self-esteem can be debilitating to live with. Daily life can become crippled with anxiety. You may find you always talk down or minimise yourself and struggle take pride in anything you do. As a qualified therapist with 9 years experience in CBT, I take great pride in my job and believe it is a privilege to be able to help and support others.

I have a particular interest in working with the South Asian community (this includes individuals and couples from an Indian, Bangladeshi, Nepalese, Pakistani, and Sri Lankan background, among others).
Please note: Enquiries via EMAIL only, I will respond within 24 hours. Drop me an email to arrange a quick chat. I work with South Asians looking to actively break intergenerational patterns of dysfunction and take ownership of their life choices, build resilience and tap into their cultural strengths. If you're seeking to break free from unhealthy attachment patterns and committed to breaking the cycle of generational trauma - I see you! If you consider yourself a 'cycle-breaker' - we'd be a GREAT fit! Reach out to book a free 10-minute intro video call.

I help high-performing professionals/entrepreneurs, they are often driven by logic and working in tech/finance/law/media/arts. I specialise in helping people develop a relationship with their body, and to understand the impact of their feelings and emotions on the body and vice versa. I often work with those with experience of living life on the edge, and/or complex, troubled relationships. I work well with people for whom talking about personal matters feels very difficult. I am not easily shocked and I also understand the need for taking things slowly and sensitively. My approach is kind, practical, down-to-earth and creative.
