I work psychoanalytically which involves paying particular attention to the words spoken and can reveal the unconscious processes that drive us. Each individual has their own unique response to their own upbringing and life’s circumstances.
Life may seem overwhelming and out of control following a recent event or trauma. Talking to someone and being fully listened to, without being judged, can be the start of a process of coming to terms with difficult and traumatic experiences.

I am a psychoanalytic psychotherapist in Cambridge, working with individuals and couples who are experiencing anxiety, low mood, self doubt, work-related stress or recurring difficulties in relationships.
My approach is psychoanalytic which means working with the underlying roots of difficulties rather than only surface symptoms. Therapy offers a regular, confidential space to think carefully about emotional patterns, relationships and personal inner experience. Over time, this can lead to more lasting change in how you relate to yourself and to others.

Something inside feels held back? Long to live more fully, yet find yourself staying at the edges? Perhaps you worry that you take up too much space, or that you are difficult to understand. If any of this feels familiar, I want you to know that you are welcome here. If words feel tangled, we can turn to images, poetry, music, sound, story, or shared quiet. When your inner critic grows loud, we can create space for your softer voice to speak. Therapy is a place designed for you, a kind of gentle laboratory set up for you to safely explore different ways of living and being yourself.

Feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected?
You’re not alone. Whether you’re struggling with eating disorders, anxiety, depression, ASD, ADHD, or BPD, or other difficulties you might find it hard to express what’s really going on. Maybe traditional talking therapy feels intimidating, or words just don’t feel enough. Want to feel heard, understood, and supported in a way that truly works for you—without pressure or judgment? My goal is to help you process emotions, build resilience, and find clarity using methods that feel safe and comfortable for you. Therapy should adapt to you, not the other way around.

I offer psychoanalytic psychotherapy in my consulting rooms in Finsbury Park and Cambridge, and in some instances remotely.
Perhaps you’re finding it hard to feel at ease in your body, your sexuality, or your relationships—feeling weighed down by anxiety, shame, or confusion about who you are or what you want. I work with both adults and young people, often those facing complex challenges that may be rooted in painful or traumatic experiences. Some people come after having had CBT or other time-limited therapies before and feeling frustrated it hasn’t brought the change they hoped for. Others already understand a lot about their struggles but still feel stuck with painful symptoms.

I am a psychoanalytic psychotherapist, and I am also fully trained in EMDR, which I integrate into the work or for which I see people separately.
Underpinning psychoanalytic psychotherapy is a vast body of work that began with Freud, but the theory doesn't have an overt presence in the room. Psychotherapy in practice is more a process of discovery for both therapist and client. It can be challenging, exciting, frightening – even funny – as we both try to better understand the circumstances and patterns that have brought you to therapy.
I offer an initial session for £40, which of course holds no obligation to continue.

I am trained as a psychoanalytic psychotherapist, and I work relationally to help people make sense of how they think, feel, and relate to others.
Psychotherapy is a talking therapy that involves speaking about emotional difficulties with a trained professional.

Sometimes we want a confidential, objective space to explore our feelings, understand ourselves better, or make sense of patterns in how we think, feel, and relate to others.
Therapy can also be a place to reflect, grow, and consider meaningful personal change.

Why we come to therapy may not necessarily at first appear connected to relationships in our lives past or present. What often becomes evident however, is that the relationship we have with ourselves, such as with our thoughts, feelings, desires, worries and concerns may be a source of difficulty for us. Looking at this relationship together offers a route to transformation.

Psychoanalytic Counsellors
Does psychoanalytic therapy work?
Psychoanalytic therapy derives from the work of Sigmund Freud. In this type of therapy, discovering buried thoughts and emotions from the unconscious will help a person work through their difficulties and negative behaviours. Research shows that psychoanalytic therapy can be highly effective, with patients reporting improvement in mood, quality of life, and overall well-being.
How long are people typically in psychoanalytic therapy?
Traditional psychoanalysis is in-depth and is conducted in five sessions every week. Today, modern psychoanalytic therapy is less intense and normally incorporates as few as one or two sessions a week. In some cases, positive change can occur quickly. However, if the condition, difficulty, or behaviour is deep-seated, improvement may require many months or years of therapy.
Is psychoanalytic therapy suitable for young people?
Children and adolescents can benefit from this type of therapy. Many kids and teens are often unable to form and communicate their thoughts and emotions. Psychoanalytic therapy uses specific techniques such as dream analysis, symbolism, and free association or word association; all of which can be useful tools for less-communicative young people. Through this therapy, a patient will hopefully make connections between what they feel inside and how the world works outside.
Can psychoanalytic therapy be done online?
Modern-day psychoanalytic therapy is very different from traditional psychoanalysis. While an individual can sit face-to-face with the psychoanalyst for multiple sessions a week, they do not have to. Today, psychoanalytic therapy can be effectively conducted online or by phone. The key is that the individual confronts what is repressed and avoided, and this can be done whether in person or over online video.
