Taking the initial steps to seeking therapy can be daunting. Therefore, building a trusting therapeutic relationship, in a safe and empathetic environment, is key to my approach. I am committed to providing bespoke psychological therapy that is tailored to the individual, and focuses on clients’ strengths and skills in order to help them overcome challenges they face and work towards holistic wellbeing. I am experienced in working with clients from a range of cultural backgrounds and sexualities, and I tailor the support I offer accordingly.

I am a psychotherapist and supervisor and have been working with individuals and groups for the last twenty years. For several years I was on the training committee at AGIP including two years as chair. I am currently the course leader for the Guild's diploma in psychoanalytic supervision. I would describe my orientation as psychoanalytic from within a contemplative perspective. By this I mean that I subscribe to the idea of an unconscious and believe events and attitudes from early life can impact on our lives today. I understand that an awareness of these currents helps to increase the choices available to us.

It can feel hard, sometimes impossible, to change the way we think, behave and react to certain situations. If you gain an increased understanding by exploring patterns then this can help you make sense of things, which can help you feel more in control and manage emotions that otherwise feel overwhelming. The therapeutic relationship is unique. I lay the foundation for the work we can do together. Feeling truly understood can be a rare experience that allows you to open up and to discover more about yourself. With an increased self-awareness can come a more regulated way of being and thinking.

Life’s uncertainties and challenges can sometimes feel overwhelming, leading to anxiety, confusion, or a sense of being stuck. You might have a clear reason for seeking therapy—like anxiety, feeling disconnected, or recurring relationship issues. Or perhaps there's a more general sense of unease or dissatisfaction without an obvious cause. Many people also struggle with the pressure caused by the expectations of people close to them or society as a whole and feel unsure about how to live in a way that aligns with their own desires.

It is easy to find a counsellor but perhaps more difficult to know if you have found the right one for you? Will you feel safe and comfortable? Life events and experiences can be distressing, feel overwhelming and sharing these problems can feel daunting and anxiety provoking. I am an accredited, experienced psychodynamically trained psychotherapist/counsellor with some additional CBT training, that could offer you a confidential and non judgemental setting where we can work through any personal or relationship issues. You may be considering a short term focused therapy or some longer term psychoanalytic therapy?

I am a very compassionate person, supportive and warm who will help you to deal with the difficulties of life.
I am a very compassionate person, supportive and warm who will help you to deal with the difficulties of life.
I work with clients who feel weighed down by anxiety, low self-esteem, or complex relationship dynamics. Many face a blend of challenges, from managing emotional wellbeing and mental health to navigating personal identity, family complexities, or trauma. They’re seeking a safe, supportive space to process their experiences, build self-compassion, and find tools to develop resilience. Their goals often include gaining clarity, confidence, and a stronger sense of self, so they can move through life’s challenges with greater purpose, balance, and inner strength.

My great passion in my job is bringing healing to people who have been through a traumatic/stressful experience, helping them to find a healthy perception of themselves. The psychotherapeutic relationship is a safe and creative space that enables you to explore yourself and your relationships with other people, and various other aspects of your life without feeling judged. Psychotherapy helps you to better understand your past experiences, but it doesn't always have to be focused on your past. It often explores how you feel, here-and-now, and the ways you can bring more vitality, creativity and happiness into your life.

I have a psychodynamic approach to therapy, with a particular focus on relationships to gently reveal insights and understanding as to why you may do what you do and find alternative ways to move beyond painful and repetitive experiences. I am committed to ethical, non-discriminatory practice and welcome individuals and couples of all cultures and sexualities. I abide by the principles and ethics of the UKCP.

All of us experience challenges in our lives and sometimes these challenges are difficult to carry. You may be feeling stressed, angry, anxious, confused, inadequate or overwhelmed with sadness. You may feel isolated with your thoughts and feelings. Sitting within a confidential and supportive environment with someone you can trust and who will listen, can help you understand and make sense of your situation.

I believe that we can create the life we would like, and therapy can help us to form what we'd like for ourselves. I work in a confidential one to one setting, to build a trusting relationship. I will listen and empathise so we can develop what you would like for yourself and your wider relationships, so you can take charge over your experience. I've been working as a therapist for the last 6 years.

You may be experiencing a period in your life where personal circumstances are proving quite challenging, sometimes these difficulties can become overwhelming causing us to withdraw. The therapeutic process allows room for change and with the support of a therapist, progress can begin towards a different outlook towards yourself, your current circumstances and resources to develop and maintain a greater quality of life.

You may be facing an immediate crisis, or dealing with long-standing challenges. You may be facing bereavement, struggling to overcome anxiety or tackling addiction. I believe that the therapeutic relationship provides a safe place in which you can look deeply at these issues and unpick the impact that they have across your life. In an environment of kindness and compassion, I will support you in reflecting on your life and exploring the situation in which you find yourself today.

Sometimes these challenges can lead to feeling isolated or confused, depression, anxiety or stress. Maybe you have struggled with fitting into society or you have been struggling with low self esteem. Either way, I can offer you a safe space to gently explore your experiences.

Relationship difficulties, bereavements, life transitions are all things that can catch us off-guard, causing us to question ourselves/our lives and leaving us feeling overwhelmed, scared, numb and struggling to function as we’re used to. Or maybe you don’t feel that anything major has happened, but that something just doesn’t feel right. Many of the people I work with for example, describe themselves as textbook “high achievers” who have accomplished a lot but also carry with them a sense of longing, of life feeling flat or that, despite the successes, they as a person still just aren’t ‘good enough.’

Do you feel a bit unsettled, unsure of the future, anxious or depressed? Maybe you, or someone you care about, has had an unwanted medical diagnosis. Perhaps you’ve experienced some other sort of loss ... Loss covers a huge range of circumstances and events, often unexpected, unwelcome, or 'unfair'. My aim is to help people survive their loss or whatever challenge they are faced with, to work through it, support them, strengthen their resilience, rebuild their confidence, contentment and rediscover their joy.
