Attachment-based Counselling in East London, London
I often use relational models of therapy that help you develop an attachment-based and emotions-focused understanding of your presenting difficulties and unhelpful life patterns.
Are you experiencing challenges with your relationships, difficult feelings, such as anxiety or depression, or feeling stuck in unhelpful patterns in your life? Perhaps you deal with your pressures so that others around you don’t seem to notice yet inwardly feel troubled or unsettled. Or you might have had a difficult recent life event or yet to deal fully with early life experiences that are impacting you now? I’m a Senior Counselling Psychologist and accredited Mentalisation Based Therapist. I can help you, as an individual or couple, to understand what is happening at a deeper level, so you can find new ways of moving forward.

I am an attachment-based psychotherapist based in Old Street, Islington.
I believe that psychotherapy can get to the root of distress. Through a safe and confidential therapeutic relationship, we can come to understand ourselves better and live with more fulfilment, freedom and self-acceptance.
Having been in therapy myself, I know first-hand that the process and effects can be profound. Part of this means looking at how experiences and relationships from earlier in your life are affecting things now. And part of this means learning to be with your present-day experience in a different way – becoming more mindful and curious about your emotions, your mind and your body.

Finding the courage to acknowledge you’re struggling can be one of the hardest parts of asking for help, but you’ve already taken the biggest step by seeking support.
I see therapy as a collaborative process; one where we work together to explore what you might need, and what might help. I draw on a range of therapeutic tools and resources depending on the focus of our work, and I have particular experience supporting clients around nervous system regulation, trauma, neurodiversity, grief, anxiety, depression, relationships, identity, and life transitions.

I am a HCPC registered Clinical Psychologist, which means I have completed extensive training in the assessment and treatment of mental health difficulties throughout different stages of life. My approach to therapy is warm, empathic, and genuine. It is important to me to create a space that feels safe, and where my clients feel heard and understood. Some people come to see me for help with a specific issue such as anxiety, or difficulties with managing stress at work. Others meet with me to have a space where they can be free to reflect and work towards a greater sense of understanding, and in turn compassion, towards themselves.
