About me and my therapy practice
I am an Integrative Child & Adolescent Psychotherapist. Since 2012, I have been providing therapy for pupils (aged 5 - 18) in London primary and secondary schools, as well as specialist schools for teenagers with social and emotional mental health needs. I am currently working with the school based organisation ASpace. http://www.aspaceinhackney.org/
I also run a private practice, providing 1:1 psychotherapy to adolescents and young adults (age 15 - 25).
My approach is primarily psychodynamic. This means allowing the client to bring whatever content they wish to share, whilst I try to respond to the underlying anxieties and conflicts being expressed. I integrate Psychodynamic, Person-Centred, Attachment and Metalization theory to inform the work, enabling connections to be made with the client's past and present state of mind.
Therapy can provide a safe and confidential space, within which a young person can think and gradually come to understand their own inner world. Consistent weekly sessions create a sense of continuity; of being held; of having parameters within which to build trust, explore relationships and communicate.
