About me and my therapy practice
I am a couples and individual psychodynamic psychotherapist and I work in person and on Zoom. I have experience working with a wide range of emotional, psychological and cognitive problems in couple relationships and individual lives. Whatever mental unrest or relationship issue you are struggling with I can offer you sessions to express your feelings and work through your thoughts and behaviours. I aim to help you with whatever you are struggling with in the 'here & now' - depression, anxiety, stress, family, sex, identity, anger - to name just a few. Our past experience matters a great deal in what troubles us in the present and I would want to help you unpack and understand that link with the past.
When I work with couples I am interested in taking a psychosexual history as well as life & family past history. I work dynamically with couples to identify what is happening between you both in the present to improve communication, intimacy, mutual respect & understanding and closeness.
Talking, sharing and thinking in therapy with me has the potential to open up different ways of feeling and then different ways of living.Talking in the short term and long term can help

I am a couples and individual psychodynamic psychotherapist and I work in person and on Zoom. I have experience working with a wide range of emotional, psychological and cognitive problems in couple relationships and individual lives. Whatever mental unrest or relationship issue you are struggling with I can offer you sessions to express your feelings and work through your thoughts and behaviours. I aim to help you with whatever you are struggling with in the 'here & now' - depression, anxiety, stress, family, sex, identity, anger - to name just a few. We start here and then I like to think about your recent and long term past. Our past experience matters a great deal in what troubles us in the present and I would want to help you unpack and understand that link with the past.
When I work with couples I am interested in taking a psychosexual history as well as life & family past history. I work dynamically with couples to identify what is happening between you both in the present to improve communication, intimacy, mutual respect & understanding and closeness.
My main aim is to listen to you as a unique individual and help you understand how and why you feel as you do, I don't fit a theory onto you. I want to work with you to facilitate the changes you may be desperate for so you can live a life with less anxiety, feel less lonely or depressed
I won't judge you, interrupt you or hurry you. I will reflect on what you tell me and what I feel you can't. The unspoken or unexplored elements of you are important. In working with me the working relationship we build matters a great deal.
My first session
The first session is a 90 minute consultation. In this appointment I would invite you to speak openly and freely about what you are struggling with - the feelings, circumstances and history. I will ask to hear details of your past life experiences, background and relationships. You can start wherever you want to. With couples I like to take a psychosexual history as well.
The fee for an individual initial consultation is £140 & £175 for a couples initial consultation.

About me and my therapy practice
I work with individuals and couples and however bad you are feeling or whatever is troubling you I will listen without interruption or judgment and help you find a way through. I am experienced and committed to offering a secure, warm and professional therapeutic experience to all.
Practice description
The therapy I offer is a place for you to talk in confidence without fear of judgement or interruption about the difficult feelings, thoughts or behaviours you are experiencing. I work with what you bring; I work to help you live and feel differently.
Your feelings may be overwhelming, disturbing, complicated or confusing. Your relationships, work, home or family life may be affected by the troubles you have. You may be frustrated, fearful, angry or confused; depressed, sad, lonely or at a loss. You are probably in need of support and understanding to work all this out and feel better.
I believe that our environment, past experiences and an unknown or unconscious element to our lives shapes the feelings we have, the relationships we are in and the difficulties we encounter.
Bad experiences, change, loss and illness are just some factors that can be trigger feeling low or lonely, anxious or depressed. Sometimes feelings can seem as if they come from nowhere or old ways of thinking and acting can recur.
Talking, sharing and thinking in therapy with me has the potential to open up different ways of feeling and then different ways of living. Talking in the short and long term can help.
I have returned to conducting sessions in person. The pandemic may have been a time of uncertainty, anxiety and loss for you. Emerging out of restrictions and isolation may also be a fearful and stressful experience. Relationships at home and at work may feel strained and emotions may be running high. Often past problems re-emerge and you may need to talk in confidence about all that troubles you.

Your first session with me is a 90 minute consultation. Here I am interested in hearing about your current difficulties and gaining a picture of your past life experiences and relationship history.

I charge £140 for the initial consultation for individuals and £175 for a couples consultation.
