I have over 15 years of experience of working as a counsellor with adults, young people, adolescents and children. I work face to face as well as on-line. I believe that you have the answers to your difficulties and that I as your therapist will provide a safe space to discuss your thoughts, feelings and emotions with the aim of gaining insight and understanding so that you may live a happier and more authentic life. Sometimes people come to therapy with specific difficulties like, anxiety, depression, addiction, low self esteem and others come with a more generalised feeling of discontent. I am here to listen.

My aim is to offer each person I meet an oppertunity to experience their own deep potential. I don't believe we are predestined to experience mental health problems, or that this should be the status quo. My experiences as a counsellor and a meditation coach and practitioner suggest to me mental health should be experienced as health.

Talking through some of the obstacles or negative thinking getting in your way can be enormously freeing and empowering! Through our work we would look at coping strategies, building resilience and awareness, supporting you in understanding patterns and shifting behaviour towards how you want to be. My approach is one of calm, compassion and care and I hope for you, some new perspective and light.

I work with adults and young people from different backgrounds and different past experiences. I offer a confidential, non judgmental safe space where my clients can feel free to work through their presenting issue in a way that is comfortable for them. Therapy with me involves working together to identify the clients needs and agree the best possible way forward. I am a big believer in self-care and will work with my clients to ensure they focus on their own self-care throughout our therapy process and beyond. I'm passionate about working along side my clients throughout their therapy process to help them facilitate change.

I am an integrative therapist and a registered member with the BACP (British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy). I recognise seeing a therapist is not a passive act; it isn’t like visiting the doctor to be measured, assessed, and treated. You don’t come away after one appointment with a pill to take and the responsibility ends there. Through my work, I am humbled and do not take it for granted when a potential client chooses me to be a part of their therapeutic journey. By working collaboratively, I can help you to gain a deeper understanding of yourself and your issues, leading to personal growth and self-acceptance.

I'm a warm and down-to-earth psychotherapist, currently working both online and in-person in Dalston, London E8. I offer weekly therapy with adults on a 1-to-1 basis. I've worked with people experiencing anxiety, depression, low self-worth, relationship difficulties, loneliness & isolation, bereavement, conflicts at work or home, traumatic experiences & finding meaning, amongst many other issues. You may have a more vague sense of dissatisfaction and you don't need to be in crisis to find counselling useful; attending regularly can also be seen as an act of generous self-care, bringing greater insight, perspective & ease.

I value the individuality of each client I work with and I am skilled in building meaningful therapeutic relationships, a strong foundation from which we work through things together. Research has revealed the significance of the therapeutic relationship in achieving goals for clients. You may be feeling overwhelmed, unfulfilled, angry, depressed, anxious or experiencing low self-esteem. Or perhaps you have experienced a trauma which continues to affect you. These are some of the areas I can support you with. I listen attentively to what you share in your own narrative at your own pace and I support you to express your emotions.

I believe that every individual has the capacity to live a nourishing life and deserves to feel fulfilled. However because of past or present experiences, as well as learnt behaviour, we can find ourselves stuck with unwanted feelings, desperately wishing that partners, parents, friends or situations were different. In these moments we can feel powerless and unable to speak our truth, so it is important to have an external guide, who can help us navigate through the storm and find our voice. I am committed to helping my clients reach a place of empowerment and well-being, by becoming the best versions of themselves that they can be.

If you are thinking of starting a therapy you may be willing to deal with painful issues that can manifest in various shapes and intensity and have an impact on the day-to-day life; such issues are personal and linked both to personality and life events. A disturb can express in different ways and symptoms, like panic attacks, Depression, psychosomatic symptoms, Anxiety etc. Other times there is rather a generic feeling of discomfort that needs to be defined and addressed.

Everyone can go through a challenging time and we all do it in our own way. You might find it challenging or relieving to talk to a professional and either could work. My sessions offer a safe and non-judgemental space to explore how we both can work together so you can get the most benefit from the therapy. I believe every person deals with their situations differently and therefore I apply an integrative approach to suit your needs. Some of the various approaches I use are Person Centred, EMDR, CBT, Gestalt, Psychodynamic and more.

If you’re reading this, it’s likely that you are not in a good place. Maybe slightly off the track, struggling to make sense of your thoughts and feelings, or perhaps completely overwhelmed. You may need support, guidance, or just an empathetic other who can give you their undivided attention in a safe place where you don’t need to censor yourself. I have an MSc in psychodynamic psychotherapy and counselling. I work at the NHS both as an adult psychotherapist at a complex trauma unit, and as a perinatal psychotherapist working with pregnant women, and vulnerable parents and their infants and toddlers.

I am an integrative psychotherapist and counsellor, with several years’ experience supporting individuals privately and in the voluntary sector. I provide therapy which is accepting and supportive to enable you to safely and creatively explore what it is you are struggling with. We can all become stuck or disconnected at times. Therapy can help us slow down for a moment, feel safe enough to re-connect with ourselves. It is then possible to reflect and discover what it is our bodies are telling us we need to move towards change or to feel freer in ourselves. I provide short, medium, long-term and open-ended therapy to adults.

To navigate between locations within the same country, enter a new city or postcode into the search bar.

Learn more about how to find a therapist.

Is online therapy a good option?

Therapy conducted online or over the phone can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your postcode.

What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counsellor?

Therapists, psychologists, and counsellors are all licensed mental health professionals. In many countries, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counsellor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counsellors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.

What type of therapist is right for me?

Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counsellor who can offer short-term, targeted support.

Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?

The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counselling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.

What type of therapy is right for me?

The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.

Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?

Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
