Together we explore emotions, needs, recognize patterns in the relationship, and navigate life's uncertainties.
The thought of talking to stranger about deeply personal issues can feel daunting. Talking to a therapist who values your story and perspective can guide understanding, empowerment and healing. Whether you are beginning to notice a sense of dissatisfaction with life, difficulty with relationships or heightening anxiety therapy is a space to feel heard and validated . Pressure and expectations can leave us feeling alone and wondering how we ended up here. Sometimes things happen that are outside of our control, things that impact us in ways that we never could have imagined. You are important and understanding yourself matters.

My practice focuses on the psychological treatment of clients across the lifespan. My current work is primarily with adolescents (over 12) and adults. Presenting issues include anxiety, depression, challenges with emotions, trauma, and relationship issues. I have over twenty years of experience as a clinical psychologist working within the London community and I invited a doctoral-level psychology resident into my practice in September 2024. My approach is integrative, but I do strongly respect the role of emotions and attachment in understanding difficulties and promoting healing.

Relationship Issues Counsellors
While need for human connection appears to be innate, the ability to form healthy, loving relationships is learned. Some evidence suggests that the ability to form a stable relationship starts to form in infancy, in a child's earliest experiences with a caregiver who reliably meets the infant's needs for food, care, warmth, protection, stimulation, and social contact. Such relationships are not destiny, but they are theorized to establish deeply ingrained patterns of relating to others. The end of a relationship, however, is often a source of great psychological anguish.
