Being trained psychodynamically, enables me to look at patterns & coping mechanisms that may have been set down in the past but that are repeating, unconsciously and often unhelpfully, in the present. Often these come to light when a crisis - bereavement; the end of a relationship; redundancy; illness - occurs. Perhaps an overwhelm of anxiety, depression & panic attacks have led you to this page now... By offering an authentic, non- judgemental & confidential space I can help you to explore the difficult feelings which you are experiencing, to enable you to understand and process what is occurring now, so as to navigate the future.

Beginning therapy can be difficult, that’s why I believe in creating a bespoke experience for all my clients to ensure their needs are met within my therapeutic limits. Perhaps you have reached a point where continuing without help has proven to be impossible and affecting your relationship - not only with others but yourself too. Then it’s time to work on gently, compassionately healing those parts that are no longer serving you. If you have experienced: childhood adversity, identity difficulties, migrations and cultural challenges, relationships blocks, then this might be the approach for you.

Hello and Welcome, Life has indeed become complex. Many of us are now struggling with our mental health in ways that are no longer manageable. Our past and present hurts, our unprocessed feelings have risen to the surface. We find ourselves thinking, feeling and acting in ways that do not reflect who we want to be. Some of us have Grief, Trauma or Addiction that we just can’t seem to work through. As a Senior Accredited Psychotherapist with a Master Degree and EMDR Accredited, I've seen thousands come through my door, with various presenting issues and undergo genuine transformation, healing and leave with hope for the future.

I see the therapeutic space as an opportunity to take a new look at current difficulties, taking into account old and often unconscious issues in order to promote the awareness that leads to more harmonious functioning and more satisfactory relationships. I prioritise establishing a climate of trust in the therapeutic relationship where warmth and empathy are paramount. My experience also reaches to supporting young adults who seek to better understand their concerns and symptoms, which can be in the range of depression, relationship snd family difficulties.

I am an experienced psychodynamic psychotherapist and counsellor. I offer a confidential and safe space where we can think about what is troubling you in a non-judgemental setting. People come to therapy for all sorts of reasons. Life can throw upsetting things at us and sometimes we find ourselves affected by events more than we expect. Psychodynamic therapy provides an opportunity to discover the unconscious processes that drive our responses and behaviours. Once these processes are acknowledged, we have the choice of changing how we react. This can help us to feel better about ourselves and live a more fulfilling life.

Do you find yourself repeating patterns of behaviour that lead to the same unhappy outcome time after time? Are you ever overwhelmed by negative thoughts, feelings or beliefs that stop you moving on in your life? Is the voice of your own inner critic sometimes so loud that you are stricken by panic or frozen with fear? Maybe you are alone or part of a couple and longing for intimacy that never comes? If any of these experiences ring true, I can give you the support you need to find the direction and meaning that has gone missing from your life.

Have you been feeling lonely and isolated? Have those feelings impacted the way you perceive and connect with the world and people around you? Sometimes you may feel that difficult experiences from your past still haunt you, leaving very little space in your mind to be in the present. And it may feel hard to recognise the way you have been feeling lately. The mood swing, anxious and depressing feelings feel hard to manage. It can be daunting having to deal with confusing feelings and sensations and so much on your won, when you are just trying to be true to yourself.

I am an accredited integrative psychotherapist (MBACP) with a special focus on trauma and dissociation. I work relationally, which means that, through the therapeutic relationship, you are encouraged to understand how early experiences and past relationships impact on your present difficulties. In order to access emotions and past traumatic experiences trapped in the body I sometimes use a more mindful and somatic approach in addition to traditional talking therapies. Of special interest to me is how unresolved and traumatic experiences can be healed and transformed by a greater integration of the mind and body.

Life is embodied and movement shapes our interactions in the world. Perhaps you're navigating trauma, sexual and domestic violence, or profound loss, or yearning for your intersecting identities to be understood and honoured. The body, under stress, may respond through illness, physical symptoms, behavioural patterns, and/or emotional difficulties in relationships. Physical and psychological health and intertwined. Through one-to-one sessions or group work, we'll explore the dynamic interplay between body, trauma, and identity, guiding you towards re-forming patterns, emotional regulation, personal growth and development.
