Therapy can assist in a variety of ways, from being a place to express feelings and thoughts without judgment and in confidence, to exploring deeply traumatic experiences with professional support. It can be a form of personal development - an opportunity to increase your self-awareness, become more emotionally robust, learn about your life story and develop your understanding of how you came to be who you are today. Whatever brings you to therapy, I will provide a safe, professional and confidential space for you to explore, discover, grow and change.

I am a Clinical Psychologist with 20 years of experience working in the helping professions. I approach my clinical work from a compassionate perspective, mindful of how difficult it can be to speak openly about struggling. I have experience of working with people who struggle with anxiety, depression, bereavement, shame, low self-esteem, trauma, perfectionism, OCD, relationship difficulties, stress, burnout and abuse, amongst other things. I also have expertise working affirmatively with LGBTQ+ communities, gay men, GSRD, diversity & inclusion and intersectionality.

I believe that psychotherapy has the potential to get to the root of distress. Through a safe and confidential therapeutic relationship, we can come to understand ourselves better and live with more fulfilment, freedom and self-acceptance. Having been in therapy myself, I know first-hand that the process and effects can be profound. Part of this means looking at how experiences and relationships from earlier in your life are affecting things now. And part of this means learning to be with your present-day experience in a different way – becoming more mindful and curious about your emotions, your mind and your body.

Hi, My name is Nav (she/her) and I am a therapist who works with people who are anxious, depressed and often struggling with identity and self esteem. Grief and loss are themes that often emerge, as I help you examine the shame you may have felt your whole life. My clients are predominantly from the LGBTQ+ community and are often BAME also. I have over time developed a specialism for helping those with layered intersectionality and the challenges this brings when navigating the world, which can be a lonely and difficult place. We can work together and help you to establish better relationships and a clearer sense of self.

I can imagine, given that you are here, there may be something in your life that is causing you discomfort. Welcome, and well done for taking the first step towards getting some support. Some people seek out therapy because they have felt depressed, anxious or angry for a long time; others may want help for relationship difficulties, self-destructive habits or a chronic illness that is interfering with their emotional or physical well-being. Sometimes, unexpected changes or circumstances also bring people into therapy - for example, going through a divorce, feeling overwhelmed by a new job, or grieving the loss of a family member.

Together we will work with whatever you bring to therapy. This may be an issue that is clear and well defined. You might want change in your relationship or in your work, or you may want support dealing with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem or shame, for example. But it might also be something much vaguer, it may be a general interest in exploring aspects of your life or way of relating to the world, or it might be a sense of confusion, stuckness, dissatisfaction or unfinished business.

You may be feeling overwhelmed & disconnected in your relationships & work, &/or experiencing anxiety & despair about the state of the world - the climate crisis, the political landscape, the “never enough” of grind culture capitalism, the multitude of oppressive systems that plague us (racism, cisheteropatriarchy etc). I’ve been practicing for 15 years & find it especially rewarding working with those who are highly sensitive, empathic, artists, activists, queer, non monogamous, those struggling with a dysregulated nervous system, anxious attachment, poor boundaries & people pleasing. I work somatically alongside talk therapy.

I provide a space where clients can explore difficult emotions and experiences in a setting which is safe, confidential and empathic. I believe that through gaining deeper awareness and connection to our emotions and responses, we can be empowered to have greater choice, and live in a more meaningful and connected way. There are many reasons you may be seeking out therapy. It could be in relation to stress, past experiences, struggles in relationship, identity, loss, anxiety, depression, feeling unable to cope, stuck, or burnt-out. In our first session we will explore what brings you to therapy, and if we can work well together.

Throughout their lives many people go through emotional and psychological difficulties. Psychotherapy can help to bring about change through conversations, in some instances to understand a particular and current challenge or symptom, and in others to explore one’s life more extensively. Trained as an Integrative Psychotherapist, I embrace an attitude that affirms the inherent value of each individual. My approach is flexible depending on the client's needs. We work together to identify the roots and connections between behaviors, unconscious thoughts, feelings, emotions and physiological responses.

I work with people experiencing a wide range of difficulties from many different backgrounds, everyone’s story and reason for coming to therapy are different but all are equal. I offer both long and short term individual therapy, generally the length of therapy is something that we would discuss in our first session. In the case of longer term therapy we would frequently review as the therapy progresses to consider what work remains and when might it be appropriate to conclude therapy.
