A very warm welcome! I understand that life can be challenging, and that it is both important and brave in these moments to reach out for support. After all, "we heal in community, not in isolation" (Esther Perel). Competing life challenges can cause us to suffer. We might valiantly try to ignore, mask or project uncomfortable emotions. We may find ourselves choosing between unhealthy coping mechanisms, or opting out completely. I have come to realise that the symptoms of our suffering are often the body’s way of guiding us towards a healthier balanced life. I hope to support you as you uncover your inner wisdom.

I offer a free initial session, online or face-to-face, to get a feel of how it would be to work with me and to see if we are the right fit.
I aim to create a safe space to support your journey at a pace that feels right for you. I am passionate about working holistically and connecting with both the mind and body. I gently work together with my clients to help respond from their inherent potential, rather than learnt patterns, fostering choice and empowerment. Throughout my experience, I have seen how much change, healing and opportunity can come out of difficulty and enjoy holding this potential with my clients. Working closely with people from different backgrounds, ethnicities and spectrums, I advocate, welcome and celebrate all differences.

Working in the NHS and privately, I’ve spent many hours with people who struggle with problems that distress them. Some have suffered from an enduring sense of flatness or emptiness in their lives, while others struggle with states of heightened anxiety. Some seek help due to recurring problems in their relationships: issues with sex and intimacy, or low self-esteem, or anger, or anxiety. Many are troubled by aspects of the past that remain unresolved. By speaking in confidence to an experienced listener, we can address things we may have preferred not to talk about, or even think about, but which weighed on our minds all the same.

You might seem like you’ve got it all together, but inside things feel heavy, stuck or unclear. Maybe you’ve always been the strong one, or you’ve had to shape-shift to fit into spaces that weren’t made with you in mind. You might be feeling disconnected from yourself, questioning your identity, or worn down from carrying too much for too long. You’re looking for space to breathe, reflect and reconnect with who you really are, on your own terms.

My clients are often reflective, thoughtful people who feel stuck or disconnected from who they are. They may struggle with self-criticism or people-pleasing, or feel that life has lost direction. Some may be adjusting to a recent diagnosis like ADHD or Autism or AuDHD and experiencing symptoms of anxiety or depression. Together, we explore what sits beneath these patterns, looking at identity, attachment, and meaning, to build understanding, self-compassion, and movement towards change. My approach draws on a range of strategies, offering warmth, honesty, and a space to reconnect with yourself and live more authentically.

I offer day-time appointments - face-to-face at The Awareness Centre in Clapham (Tuesdays) and via Zoom and telephone (Mondays & Fridays).
Are you weighed down by anxiety or depression? Perhaps you are going through fertility treatment and you feel an overwhelming mix of emotions - including hope and fear - and you're holding it all together - lots of spinning plates - it feels too much to carry at times. Have you given birth and the birth was difficult and you know that you need to process what happened to you, but at the same time you push the memory away so that you can get through the day - perhaps your body is different, now, since you gave birth? Perhaps you have scars, stretch marks, loose skin, a prolapse? Are you feeling lost and unsure of who you are?
