I am an Integrative Counsellor, Supervisor and Tutor working with Synergie Counselling based in Hillingdon. I believe the most important aspect of any any counselling relationship is for clients to be able to talk about about their thoughts, feelings and goals in a safe, confidential space without judgement. It's also important that clients feel heard, that their therapist is honest and real with them in an empathic and understanding way.

Emotional connection, along with psychological and physical wellbeing, relies on being understood, listened to, heard, loved, valued, and respected. However, there are instances when we find ourselves trapped in unsatisfying work or intimate relationships with no idea how to break free. It feels like our life is crumbling around us. The old patterns no longer serve us, causing confusion, fear, anxiety or depression. By working together in a safe and supportive space, we can delve into self-discovery, gain confidence and resilience, and strive for a positive change in your life. 50 minute sessions are confidential and by appointment.

I work as a psychoanalytic psychotherapist and I have consulting rooms in Central London and North London. I have more than 30 years’ experience of working in the NHS as well as in independent practice. In my experience people seek therapy for many different reasons. They may be facing a predicament, be anxious, depressed or confused, or feel stuck in repeating patterns of thoughts and behaviour that have adverse effects on their lives. They may have relationship difficulties or questions about their sexuality; they may be finding it difficult to deal with the loss of a person, a position or an identity.

While there are many different approaches to psychotherapy and counselling, I work principally within the psychoanalytic tradition, a key part of which is to work in collaboration with clients to try to understand the unconscious origins of difficulties affecting our lives in the present. The aim is not to give advice, but to support people who have reached a point in their lives where they feel themselves to be facing difficult, sometimes confusing feelings and states of mind, to offer a reliable place to come and be listened to, without fear of being judged, criticised or told what to do.

Sometimes life can hurl difficulties our way and leaving us feeling conflicted, confused and depleted and at other times our thoughts and feelings may seem out of balance to the event that triggered them or do not seem to begin from anything specific at all. I work with you in a confidential space, where you can speak freely about what is troubling you, providing you with support and security, such that you no longer have to struggle on by yourself. My areas of expertise lie in treating anxiety, depression, traumata, loss and fertility concerns.

Hello, I am a psychoanalytic psychotherapist, working face-to-face in my consulting room close to Twickenham Green. In regular sessions, which take place once or twice a week, we explore how early relationships with significant others impact the way you feel, think and behave in the present. If these models do not serve you anymore, we embark on a process of change.

As a psychoanalytic ( aka psychodynamic) psychotherapist), I can offer short term, time-limited or open-ended therapy.
I work with adults and adolescents 16+, and am experienced with a range of difficulties. Typically people come to psychotherapy because they feel in a crisis or at an impasse, and/or have been struggling for a while with a problem which despite their best efforts remains hard to overcome. They may recognise they find themselves in a repeating pattern in behaviour or relationships, which they feel is unsatisfying or self-destructive. They want to understand the origins of their difficulty and the factors which maintain it, so they can gain freedom from it and live a more satisfying and creative life.

I understand that seeking therapy can be both comforting and daunting, but it can also be liberating and I commend individuals who reach out for help. Our pain can often be a message that there is something amiss in our lives, and I believe it is important that we listen to that message. Whether you are dealing with a difficult time in your life and need help managing the emotions and thoughts, I aim to assist individuals to better understand the relationship between their feelings and thoughts and explore ways to change maladaptive patterns.

So often people suffer in silence instead of reaching out for support. Whether you are looking for a therapist for yourself or have concerns about your child, teenager or family member, I will provide an engaging and individual approach. I am an experienced artist and art psychotherapist with a private practice in my home in Richmond. You do not need to be an ‘artist’ or ‘good at art’ to benefit from making and engaging in art therapy. It is not about producing masterpieces (although you may surprise yourself). And although all materials are included and their use encouraged, art making during sessions is not a requirement.

Psychoanalytic Counsellors
Does psychoanalytic therapy work?
Psychoanalytic therapy derives from the work of Sigmund Freud. In this type of therapy, discovering buried thoughts and emotions from the unconscious will help a person work through their difficulties and negative behaviours. Research shows that psychoanalytic therapy can be highly effective, with patients reporting improvement in mood, quality of life, and overall well-being.
How long are people typically in psychoanalytic therapy?
Traditional psychoanalysis is in-depth and is conducted in five sessions every week. Today, modern psychoanalytic therapy is less intense and normally incorporates as few as one or two sessions a week. In some cases, positive change can occur quickly. However, if the condition, difficulty, or behaviour is deep-seated, improvement may require many months or years of therapy.
Is psychoanalytic therapy suitable for young people?
Children and adolescents can benefit from this type of therapy. Many kids and teens are often unable to form and communicate their thoughts and emotions. Psychoanalytic therapy uses specific techniques such as dream analysis, symbolism, and free association or word association; all of which can be useful tools for less-communicative young people. Through this therapy, a patient will hopefully make connections between what they feel inside and how the world works outside.
Can psychoanalytic therapy be done online?
Modern-day psychoanalytic therapy is very different from traditional psychoanalysis. While an individual can sit face-to-face with the psychoanalyst for multiple sessions a week, they do not have to. Today, psychoanalytic therapy can be effectively conducted online or by phone. The key is that the individual confronts what is repressed and avoided, and this can be done whether in person or over online video.
