I work online and in person- My main office is in Peckham, but I also use offices in Golders Green

Therapy with me provides a safe and non-judgemental space where you are free to find and express feelings and thoughts. It may involve finding your own path, changing unhelpful thoughts, behaviours, habits, and relationship patterns, or it may involve working with more specific disorders. Therapy can offer a calm and supportive place to be seen, rebuild, and gain perspective and clarity. This takes place through me listening, engaging with, and reflecting back what you bring, so we can understand more about your feelings, behaviours, where they are rooted, and help you to feel better.

I have worked with: anxiety, eating disorders, communication difficulties and confrontation (work, family, romantic), break ups and divorce (and its effects), parenting difficulties, insecurity or confusion about self, borderline personality disorder, anger management, decision making, trauma, flashbacks, relationships, sex, abuse (sexual, emotional, physical), intrusive thoughts, psychotic disorders, depression, loss, addiction, bereavement, suicidal thoughts, apathy, ADHD.

My approach is founded in Psychodynamic thought - meaning therapy is interested in the roots of problems and feelings, and in changing patterns. I also work with more focused issues (i.e. a particular decision, relationship problem, habit, goal) in which case therapy may include practical skills.

I have an MSc from Birkbeck in Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, a PhD in English Literature and Psychoanalysis from Goldsmiths.​

I'm originally from California, USA, but have been in England since 2008. I'm creative and supportive, but will challenge you, and welcome all thoughts and feelings.

We begin with a short phone consultation, free of charge, to see if we're the right match. We'll discuss the logistics and other details from there!
