My interests include addressing issues related to self-esteem, OCD, anxiety and self-criticism.
I offer a warm, supportive, and non-judgmental therapeutic space. Feeling safe and understood can allow you to share your difficulties. Through the assessment process, we can develop a shared understanding of what has contributed to your feeling this way and your desired goals for therapy. We can then start to identify and establish new ways of coping in line with your values. I have experience working with people from a variety of backgrounds and difficulties.

My approach is trauma-informed and compassionate, recognising how life experiences can shape the way we feel, think and relate to others.

Typically, I work with people struggling with anxiety, despair, anger, and shame; who wrestle with guilt, mistrust, addiction, and dissociation; who are self-critical, self-destructive, and trapped in repeated patterns of hurting self/others. Such feelings, behaviours, and patterns of relating often stem from multiple, complex life events and circumstances, including past/present abusive and neglectful relationships, discrimination, bereavement, trauma, gender expectations, parenthood, study/work/financial pressures, and more existential challenges such as one's relationship to meaning, responsibility, authenticity, and mortality.

I am a person-centred counsellor with over 30 years experience of working with people from all backgrounds and walks of life. I aim to provide a safe accepting place where you can explore your concerns. Over the years, I have seen people who have been abused and traumatised in childhood, people who are worried about addiction, those who have suffered rape or domestic violence, people experiencing anxiety, depression or work related stress. Sometimes people don't come with a specific problem they can identify but want to increase their self awareness. I see individuals and couples on a long or short term basis.

The path of life can be challenging. We may find ourselves navigating relationship difficulties or loneliness, feeling unfulfilled at work or without work, or experiencing anxiety, or panic attacks, loss, depression, or anger. At times, these burdens become so overwhelming that we feel stuck, distressed, or even lost, and we come to a point when we might need help to find a way through these difficulties. My work is grounded in the understanding that much of what shapes our feelings, thoughts, and behaviours lies beneath the surface—within our unconscious.

As a qualified counsellor and psychotherapist I provide a safe, confidential and non-judgemental environment where I can help you gain insight into the less conscious aspects of your thinking, behaviour and feelings. I can offer brief focused counselling where we can address a current situation, as well as longer term psychotherapy where we can work together to disentangle deeper rooted difficulties which may have built up over time as a result of your earliest experiences.

I have over 10 years experience helping people overcome a range of psychological difficulties including PTSD, cPTSD, OCD, depression, anxiety issues, low self esteem, attachment issues, disordered eating and more.
Sometimes we find ourselves in situations or patterns with our thinking or relating that we aren't able to find our way forward from on our own and this is where therapy can be very helpful. Therapy is non judgemental and supportive but at times challenging and even though it can be hard, most people find that therapy is worth the effort.

I work with adults experiencing difficulties such as panic attacks, social anxiety, health anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder ( OCD) and phobias, as well as low self-esteem linked to early experiences, life events or upbringing.
My work is grounded in CBT, with EMDR used when distressing or traumatic experiences continue to affect the present. I also draw on systemic perspectives where helpful, considering how relationships and life transitions shape emotional difficulties. Sessions are tailored to you and adapted to where you are in the process.

I offer sessions online, and I specialise in ADHD, Autism & Dyspraxia (16+), supporting challenges like anxiety, low mood, OCD, self-esteem, and the impact of living in a world not built for your brain!
I’m not a blank-slate kind of therapist - I show up as my full, human, AuDHD self. I am based in London, and offer online therapy that is collaborative, warm, and grounded in real life, which specialises in ADHD & Autism. We’ll figure out what’s going on, what matters to you, and what might actually help - in a way that works for your brain, not against it.

Starting therapy can feel daunting, and I understand what a brave step it is to begin this process. I aim to create a safe, non-judgemental space where we can explore what’s bringing you to therapy, including any feelings ‘stuck-ness’ or overwhelm that you may be experiencing. We’ll work together to set meaningful therapy goals, and I’ll regularly check-in with you throughout the process to ensure the therapy is helpful and aligned with your needs.

You may be feeling overwhelmed, stuck in patterns of anxiety, low mood, or self-doubt. Perhaps you’ve been carrying a lot for a long time, or finding it difficult to feel heard and understood in your relationships. You want to understand yourself more deeply — to move beyond just coping and begin to feel more grounded, clear, and in control of your life. You’re looking for a space where you can reflect honestly, make sense of your experiences, and begin to move forward at your own pace, with support that feels steady and non-judgemental.

Hello I am a doctoral trainee counselling psychologist with seven years of clinical experience in NHS, trauma, and community settings. Working existentially and integratively, drawing on ACT and a thorough grounding in complex trauma, the focus is your actual lived experience rather than a predetermined framework. The aim is not symptom management but real insight and movement.

I have 20 years experience as a child and family Clinical Psychologist. I see individuals, couples and families of all ages. I worked in multiple NHS settings for 18 years and moved to private practice 2 years ago. I am trained in CBT, ACT, CFT, EMDR, EFT, Mindfulness and family therapy. I have extensive experience with mental and physical health issues and believe they are deeply connected. I am passionate about delivering good therapy, tailored to each persons unique life and needs. The linking thread in all my work is recognising the lasting impact of traumatic experiences (large and small) on how we feel and function right now.

I am a member of the BPS (British Psychological Society) and HCPC (Health and Care Professions Council). Fully accredited by the BACP (British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy). Approaches: Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, Psychodynamic, Person Centred. In the course of therapy we work towards raising awareness of your unconscious dynamics, which influence your current state of being. Newly acquired awareness (of these latent processes) gives you a chance to shift them and make a change towards a more fulfilling way of relating to self, others, and the world at large. I provide therapy in English and Russian.
