I’m a psychodynamic and Jungian-informed therapist, I help adults explore patterns of thought, feeling, and behaviour that cause stress, anxiety, or low mood. Together, we work towards greater self-understanding, emotional balance, and a fulfilment

Certain experiences from the past and unconscious thoughts can cause stress, anxiety, or depression. These patterns often have understandable psychological roots that can be explored and resolved, helping you feel less stuck, more confident, and better able to engage with the world. In therapy, I help clients understand these inner conflicts and remove or transform them. Over time, this leads to greater clarity, a stronger sense of wholeness, and a more meaningful, enjoyable life.

I am a fully qualified psychotherapist and a registered member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy, with a background in Psychology & Neuroscience from King’s College London. I offer open-ended and time-limited therapy and bring experience from leadership in organisational settings, which helps us stay connected to real life.

I work in person from consulting rooms in Hackney and Holborn. I am also available online. Choosing a therapist is a deeply personal choice. I offer a free 15–30 minute consultation to discuss your needs and see how we might work together. This is an opportunity for you to ask questions and decide if my approach feels right for you.

In the first session, we explore your reasons for seeking therapy and your goals. It’s a space to reflect on what’s meaningful, alive, or challenging in your life and relationships, and to discuss practical details such as frequency, format, or any specific needs. I only charge for this session if we both decide to continue working together.
