At some point in our lives, we all experience feelings of anxiety, sadness, depression, panic or anger. You might think something is intrinsically wrong with you, but you cannot put your finger on it.

Counselling and psychotherapy are one way to explore and understand what you are experiencing and gain insight into how to move forward. To do this, I offer you a safe space in a world lacking safe spaces for many.

I believe the most important aspect of therapy is the quality and depth of the relationship between therapist and client. This ensures effective therapy and can facilitate meaningful change.

Me and My Experience

I originally trained in the Performing Arts and many forms of performance continue to inspire my practice as a therapist, I also worked in the corporate world for 16 years, taking particular interest in coaching and developing colleagues.

I have trained in Integrative Psychotherapy and as such use an approach tailored to my clients, as our relationship emerges for both of us in the sessions. I integrate creativity and play as well as the conventional ideas you may have about therapy.

In my free time I love growing and nurturing plants.

I have worked in private practice since 2019 and now see clients in Shoreditch and Kensal Rise. I have worked in various counselling settings including long-term therapy as well as South London & Maudsley NHS in GP practices delivering short-term referral services.
