About me and my therapy practice

I am an experienced psychotherapist and enjoy facilitating an exploration into the hidden and sometimes difficult aspects of the self. Working psychodynamically involves reflecting on the past, how it may influence the present and integrate these to live a more fulfilling life. Psychodynamic psychotherapy can include exploring the unconscious, for example, through dreams. This encourages a deeper understanding of what causes problems in relating to the self and others.

There may be things that are unable to be put into words and easier to express through imagery. Art-making can become a powerful mode of communication. I offer art psychotherapy as a way to explore difficulties through the use of image-making. You can choose if you wish to use art, or not in sessions. I am registered on the HCPC as an Art Therapist.

I work in central and SW London as well as offering online sessions.

Practice description

I provide a compassionate, open and searching space, where there is a place to be curious about your life experiences, thoughts and feelings. Whilst I will encourage you to seek your own self-understanding, therapy is a process to think together.

What it is you are seeking from psychotherapy? Change may feel difficult but begins with taking a first step.
