Anxiety Counselling in City of London
Since I began working in mental health in 2010, there’s something I’ve heard over and over again: the person in front of me worries that their problems aren’t big enough to deserve help.
I work with people who find that the appearance they present to the world contrasts starkly with how they feel inside. That tension reaches a point where they know they need help. Whether you are feeling overwhelmed, misunderstood, sad, or simply out of sync, the promise of every therapeutic encounter is hope. Working together in a confidential relationship, we can explore the feelings and experiences that are preventing you from moving forward. You can begin the journey of meaningful change.

Are you living with higher levels of anxiety than those around you would’ve guessed?
Entering therapy has helped many to rewire their mind, and work their internal alarm system so that it doesn't go off at all hours of the day. My goal in therapy is to help you to train your mind so that you become the boss of it, rather than it being hijacked by unhelpful mind states such as rumination, worry, anxiety, hopelessness, stress etc.

I work with a range of difficulties including depressions, anxiety, trauma and relationship difficulties.
As a counselling psychologist, I am training in using cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), person centered therapy, psychodynamic psychotherapy, EMDR, mindfulness and compassion focused therapy. Knowledge and experience of using a range of psychological approaches allows me to tailor my work around the individual needs of my clients.

Drawing on psychodynamic and person-centred approaches, I work with curiosity and care to help you explore desire, identity, and relationship, alongside anxiety, disconnection, or whatever else you're carrying.
Life can bring us into contact with parts of ourselves that feel hard to name, carrying emotions, desires, identities, or experiences that don't fit neatly into the world around us. We’re often pushed from one demand to the next, stretched into shapes that don’t feel authentic, urged to want more, achieve more, be more, and somehow be perfect, no matter the cost.
Perhaps you're carrying shame about your sexuality or kink life, navigating the emotional landscape of a BDSM dynamic, or simply longing for a space where you don't have to edit yourself before walking in.

I help clients who may be struggling with depression, anxiety, or difficulties related to their relationships, or family.
You may be thinking about therapy because something in your life no longer feels manageable, or because you find yourself returning to the same thoughts, feelings, or relationship patterns. Therapy offers a space to make sense of these experiences, and begin to understand them differently. I am a qualified psychodynamic psychotherapist with over five years’ experience working with adults across NHS, and community mental health settings. I usually suggest starting with an initial consultation so we can think together about what brings you to therapy, what you may be struggling with, and whether the way I work feels suitable for you.
