I am a British Qualified Psychodynamic Counsellor with 20 years experience, both in London and Zürich. I offer the following: Child and Adolescent Psychological Counselling, Play Therapy for Children from age 3 years old, Adult Counselling and Parenting Advice and Guidance (either on-going or a one off). I have both a talking therapy space for teenagers and adults as well as a dedicated play therapy room for younger children.
In our work, you’ll have the opportunity to reflect, gain insight, and begin healing from past experiences that may be holding you back. Therapy can uncover deeper patterns, help you understand yourself more fully, and empower you to move forward with greater clarity and confidence.
Whether you are an adult looking for counselling or a child embarking on play therapy, we will work together at your own pace to untangle the thoughts and emotions that may feel too confusing, heavy, or difficult to face on your own.

Play Therapy uses a child's natural language, play, to help them explore, express and resolve emotional difficulties as they often can't articulate complex feelings with words like adults can. A variety of tools such as dolls, puppets, sand, art supplies and creative movement help children to communicate.

I am trained psychodynamically so I look at how your past experiences inform the present. I also use Mindfulness and Polyvagal theory to help ground you in the present moment in order to work through difficult emotions.
