Welcome. I am a Relational Psychotherapist. Having worked as Clinical lead for a branch of the Charity MIND delivering specialised trauma intervention and training, I have also run an independent private practice of psychotherapy and consultation for more than 10 years in West London. I work with clients on a broad range of issues offering a confidential, empathic space to reflect upon and gain insight into what is affecting them and why. These issues may be the result of day-to-day stresses, specific key events in life and many can stem from childhood.

Everybody is different and special, but has in common the need to be heard, recognised, valued and understood. As a fully qualified BACP registered person-centred counsellor trained at the Metanoia Institute those four things are at the heart of my practice. Whatever your worry, concern, or difficulty, sharing what is on your mind and in your heart in a safe space is the start of healing and self-acceptance.

I am a fully qualified BACP Accredited Integrative Psychotherapist, with over 20 years' experience, who worked in frontline NHS services (Hospitals and GP surgeries) for most of my career, and now works exclusively in Private Practice. The three issues I am most proficient in treating are anxiety, depression, and relationship difficulties. (I count myself in the number of people I have helped out of those dark places.)

It’s not always the things that have happened in your life but also those things that haven’t. This might show up as not feeling good about yourself or connections in your life. There could also be things you want to reflect on and understand better. As a qualified Integrative Counsellor, I can support you with perspective and working through what would be helpful. I know how hard it can be to ask for help and I know the value of talking it out in a private and understanding space.

"And the day came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom." Life can be difficult at times and we tend to experience our greatest challenges when what we are doing is very different from what we would like to be doing. Sometimes our relationships might not be fulfilling or work can seem pointless or unsatisfactory. This can manifest in distressing thoughts, painful feelings and unhelpful behaviours. Our work together will help you to live a more rich and meaningful life.

Would you like emotional support - but find that talking is not always easy? I offer a warm, safe and collaborative space where you can explore your concerns through talking and/or the use of art materials. As an integrative counsellor I base my approach on a variety of psychological methods, enabling me to offer broad-spectrum, personalised treatments. Sessions are client-led; meaning I am guided by your needs, and tend to be a mix of talking and creativity. Don't worry! Art making is optional. Also, you do not need to be 'good' at art. The opposite: the more spontaneous and 'unfinished' your creation, often the more therapeutic.

This time can feel very fragile both individually and collectively which is hard on most of us. How do we navigate our way through the uncertainty and recognise that in this everchanging and fast paced world we can make our way towards our own sense of certainty? During these moments it can be helpful to have someone to walk alongside you. To listen and tune into what you need and want to say. To be heard by another so that ultimately you can hear yourself. Should you need this support I would be honoured to walk a while with you.

We all face many challenges in our lives and rather than struggle alone sometimes it can help to reach out to a safe and reliable person outside of our friends and family network to share our thoughts and feelings, talk through our difficulties and find new ways of coping and making some positive changes in our lives. I am an experienced, warm and non-judgemental counsellor who can offer to help. Whether you need just a few sessions to to focus on a specific problem or wish to explore some long-standing issues in more depth then we can do so over a longer period of time.
