About me I am a qualified counsellor, registered with the British Association of Counsellors and Psychotherapists. My style of therapy is integrative with a person-centred framework. This means that I work relationally, focusing on what you bring to each session and helping you explore the feelings around it. I offer short term (12 sessions), longer-term or open-ended sessions depending on what you need. To get started I offer a free 30-minute phone consultation to work out if we are a good fit for each other.

Hi, welcome to my page. I am a multilingual Integrative Counsellor. I offer a warm, containing and confidential space for us to explore what is going on for you. In our sessions, I will be mostly listening to you and will be facilitating a space to process emotions and experiences. We will work together collaboratively to find ways for you to move forward in a different way. As an Integrative counsellor, I take a holistic view of each client and work with their unique life story, patterns and ways of relating to themselves, others and the world around them.

I will work alongside you in a supportive atmosphere to help you find a new sense of clarity, enthusiasm and confidence in your life.

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.

Clients come to me when they feel hopeless, misunderstood and stuck; they may be looking for a way to feel more connection and joy; they often know that life could and should be better for them, that their mental health could be stronger, but they just cannot get there on their own. I work well with clients who have experienced loss and those who are trying to find their place in a new life stage, as well as individuals who are impacted by shame and those seeking healing from past trauma. I have significant experience working with LGBTQ+ clients, people in non-traditional relationships and neuroatypical people.

I help those struggling with the emotional and psychological difficulties which undermine their enjoyment of life; and also those who simply want to better understand what makes them ‘tick’. Perhaps you are asking yourself: why am I in such a poor relationship, feeling anxious, behaving in a way which is causing problems, experiencing low mood? or sensing a disconnection from yourself, others, or the life you wish you could lead? If so then I am here to help and support you in making the changes that you need, and help you to understand how and why these issues have come into your life.

You might be seeking therapy because you are suffering from depression or anxiety, or you’re feeling stuck and frustrated. Or perhaps you have experienced a painful life event, such as the breakup of a relationship or loss of a job. It can be very confusing and frightening to go through these crises, making us aware of our vulnerabilities and often leaving us feeling lonely in our plight. These crucial periods are where change is inevitable; by considering counselling, you may start developing awareness and the process of healing, allowing yourself the possibility of something new to emerge.

Feeling anxious and finding it hard to get through the day? Have a sense of being "stuck" and difficulty in knowing what you really want? Perhaps you can't quite put your finger on what's not working for you at the moment, but you know things could be better. When you're in this situation, it can be useful to explore more difficult aspects of life with a qualified counsellor in a warm and non-judgmental setting.

Hello, I'm a clinical psychologist specialising in working with adults, children, young people and their families. I have 13+ years experience working in the NHS across a number of services including with adults, looked-after children and for a young people's drug and alcohol service. I also have experience working with parents over the perinatal period, with mothers and babies, and parents and toddlers. Experience has taught me that the most important factor in successful therapy is the relationship between therapist and client; therefore, I strive to provide a warm, accepting, engaging space for young people and parents alike.
