We all face emotional difficulties at some point that stop us from enjoying life as much as we would like. Talking to friends and family can be helpful, but sometimes this isn't possible or doesn't feel enough.

Whether you're finding things challenging personally or in your relationship, or you have a sense that you could be more connected with yourself and others in your life, therapy can offer a unique opportunity to explore whatever is troubling you, and can help by providing you with support and understanding.

I am an experienced UKCP accredited and BACP registered integrative counsellor/ psychotherapist working with individuals and couples in Seven Sisters, North London.

I work on a wide range of issues including anxiety, low self-esteem, issues from childhood, challenges with relationships, and bereavement and depression. I'm also aware of the issues surrounding psychiatric drug dependence and withdrawal.

Exploring emotions can be daunting, but having someone to support you can make the journey easier.

How I work

I aim to provide a safe, caring, confidential and non-judgemental space to explore the issues that prompted you to seek therapy/ couples counselling.

Training, qualifications & experience

I have an MA/Advanced Diploma in Integrative Psychotherapy and Counselling from Middlesex University, having trained at The Minster Centre in London. As well as seeing clients in private practice in Seven Sisters (N15), I have been an Honorary Psychotherapist in a specialist NHS service, and have also worked as a community bereavement counsellor with the Haringey Bereavement Service which is run by St Joseph’s Hospice, Hackney.

I offer the first session at a reduced rate of £50 to give us both an opportunity to meet and see if we feel that we can work together.
