Currently available on Wednesdays and Fridays. I can be flexible with times 

There are many things that may make us feel we are not living life to the fullest. Challenging life problems, addictive patterns, the loss of someone close to us or generally feeling low.

Through my counselling and psychotherapy work, I help people manage these issues and find their own way forward at their own pace.

To say a bit about myself, I’m trained at Masters (MSc) level in Psychodynamic Counselling and Psychotherapy. I have worked at Waterloo Community Counselling for four years, before that within a child sexual abuse clinic and a men’s residential unit which delivers personalised support for men with complex mental health needs.

My style of working is psychodynamic. In its simplest form, this involves thinking about how your past impacts your current lived experience. A process that involves us thinking together about relationships in the past and present, whilst exploring unconscious thought processes.

My style of working is built around your specific needs. I work within your framework of culture, sexuality, gender variance, class and ethnicity and we work together with the material you bring.

Professionally, I also manage the mental health team at University College London supporting the mental health and wellbeing of this student group.

I have run workshops, facilitated groups, presented at conferences and I’m a publishing author.

I'm a fully qualified psychodynamic therapist. I offer an open, empathetic, confidential and non-judgemental space where we can explore any challenges or struggles that you would like to bring.

I offer weekly, 50 minute sessions in both time limited and open ended support. 

We can discuss any questions you may have during an initial conversation over the phone. 

• Free 30 minute initial consultation (zoom video call)
• £50-£80 per 50 minute session
