I offer in-person and online therapy.

Hello, welcome to my profile.

Taking the first step toward therapy and finding the right therapist is an important decision, though it can often feel daunting or overwhelming. Throughout life, many of us encounter periods where we feel lost, disconnected, stuck, or unsure of how to move forward. You may currently be facing relationship difficulties, struggling with low self-esteem, or coping with anxiety, depression, stress, or grief. Perhaps you simply don’t feel like yourself lately and you don’t know why. Whatever unique circumstances or feelings have brought you to this point, am I here to help you.

Psychodynamic therapy explores unconscious thoughts and feelings, to help understand the impact of early life experiences and relationships on current feelings and behaviours. As a trained psychodynamic therapist, I will work collaboratively with you to make sense of recurring patterns and identify the root causes of emotional distress. In our sessions, rather than offering advice or telling you what to do, I will invite you to speak freely about whatever thoughts, feelings, or memories come to mind. We will work at a pace that feels safe and comfortable for you, in a warm and non-judgmental environment. Therapy is a personal journey, but you will not have to walk it alone; I will be beside you every step of the way.

I hold an MSc in Psychodynamic Counselling and Psychotherapy from Birkbeck, University of London. Through my clinical experience across different mental health charities in London, I have worked with individuals experiencing a wide range of mental health issues.

My practice includes open-ended as well as time-limited individual therapy, both short-term and long-term. I offer in-person and online therapy.

I offer a complimentary 15-minute phone consultation. This will give us the opportunity to talk about your expectations, explore why you are seeking therapy, and discuss availability.
