Mindfulness-Based (MBCT) Counselling in North West London
As a therapist I am passionate about helping others to navigate the complexities of their thoughts, feelings, and behaviour in a way that promotes growth, healing, and self-compassion. My goal in the therapy room is to create a safe, empathetic space where you feel comfortable exploring whatever is on your mind, knowing that we’re in it together, with respect for your autonomy and pace.
I am curious and looking to have a deeper understanding of your human experience- how relationships, identities, and personal histories have shaped you. My role lies in helping individuals make sense of these patterns, discover new ways of coping,

Before training as a therapist, I spent several years supporting neurodivergent children and their families in educational settings. This experience shaped my passion for working with neurodivergent adults, helping them make sense of their experiences, explore the impact of masking, and appreciate their unique strengths and perspectives. I’m here to listen, without judgement. You don’t need to mask, justify yourself, or have the right words. I’ll sit with you and help you feel less alone with whatever you’re carrying. I’m not here to fix you, because you’re not broken. We'll work together to understand what brought you to therapy.

As a Clinical Psychologist, CBT Therapist and Coach with over 15 years' experience using cognitive-behavioural, acceptance and commitment and mindfulness-based approaches, I combine psychological therapy with effective coaching strategies to help clients to overcome difficulties, improve their mental well-being and thrive in all aspects of their lives.
If you are feeling stuck, overwhelmed or dissatisfied with your current situation, I provide transformational coaching and therapy to help you to move forward with confidence and clarity. You may feel lost and lack a sense of direction and focus in your life. Or perhaps you have a clear goal, but you are struggling to overcome obstacles and feel stuck. You might recognise that you are locked in a negative mindset or that fear of failure is stopping you from moving forward. Perhaps you would like to improve your confidence and build resilience but you feel that procrastination, perfectionism or imposter syndrome are holding you back.

You may experience unexpected disruption, chronic conditions, major life upheaval, triggering of past experiences, bereavement, and any of these could create anxiety, trauma or depression. Understanding could fall away, your support system could become unhelpful, anti-depressants may not be effective and your coping mechanisms may not work. You may feel overpowered by your circumstances and perhaps seek support and reinforcement as you experience distress. You may want your complex issues to be contained and get some tools and techniques to cope. Perhaps you may just like to confide in someone and share your experience.

As a therapist, I work with clients to help them deal with issues such as depression, anxiety and invasive thoughts. I believe that society is quick to label people and say “whats wrong with you?” whereas, I believe we should be asking “What happened to you?” My clients have included survivors of childhood abuse, neglect, sexual assault and those recovering from traumatic-based experiences that have affected their current quality of life. I offer bereavement counselling to help people navigate their pain and find their own way to make sense of their loss. I recognise that, as each person is unique, so is their grieving process.

I’m based in London and offer online evidence-based therapy based on CBT, ACT, and mindfulness, both exploring and using active interventions to get you unstuck.
Hi, I’m an experienced, very human therapist specialising in working with high-achievers with low self-esteem, high-functioning anxiety, burnout, or OCD, including autistic/ADHD folks. If you’ve always been “the clever one”, but never quite fit in, I’ve got you. Maybe your life looks great, but inside you feel inadequate and like you’ll be "found out". Overwhelm; feeling stuck, not good enough; overpreparing, procrastinating - it may all be a fear of failure. My approach: Challenge what's unhelpful while honouring your experiences and unique brain - so you unhook from the "there's something wrong with me" loop, and live your truth.

Sometimes we may find ourselves overwhelmed with what life sends our way and we lose confidence in ourselves and abilities. Sessions can be either a one off or a series of events, depending on your needs. As Gandhi said, "Be the change that you want to see."

You may be feeling stuck - you’ve tried to stop using porn or another damaging sexual behaviour but your will power keeps failing and you find yourself going in circles, of secrecy, shame & hopelessness. The behaviours now seem like its taken the wheel and firmly in the driving seat of your life. You may even be wondering how things ever got this far. If you’re in a relationship, it’s probably suffering. Even if no one else knows, you do and what may have started as a bit of fun is now causing you pain.
There is hope. Many of our wounds are formed in relationships, so it makes sense that healing should also come through one.

You've landed here for a reason.
Maybe something feels stuck: in your life, work, or yourself. Maybe you're carrying something that's hard to name. Maybe you've been looking for a therapist who understands not just what you're going through, but the world you're moving through.
I'm a Consultant Psychotherapist, with a particular interest in working with people navigating multiple identities; race, heritage, cultural background, class, gender, sexual orientation, faith, neurodivergence, immigration status, and other intersecting identities, and the weight that carries in a world that hasn't always made space for the whole you.

I work relationally and draw from a variety of approaches including mindfulness, CBT, breathwork, imagination and the body.
In therapy I work with people to look at, understand and transform the disempowering beliefs they hold about life and themselves. People often find themselves stuck, lose meaning in their life, struggle with relationships, misplace a sense of who they are. I also offer a safe environment for people to look at their anger, including parental anger. I believe each one of us has got a collection of fears, anxieties and vulnerabilities collected since birth. No doubt we deploy any possible resource to defend against or ignore them. I find that psychotherapy's goal is showing a path to a lighter, more peaceful and vital way of being.

I specialise in working with children, adolescents and adults with ADHD and other neurodiverse profiles who want to better understand how their mind works and move beyond overwhelm. Together we develop practical strategies that improve focus, organisation, confidence, academics, business, leadership, relationships and daily life.

Life is challenging and can feel like you’re on a hamster wheel of pressure, ‘have-tos’ and obligations. The more you do, the more the wheel spins, and the faster you descend into overwhelm, stress, anxiety, and burn-out. I can support you to overcome these challenges, as well as relational trauma and abuse, racial trauma, grief, low self-esteem, and life transitions. I offer a compassionate space for us to explore what you have experienced in life, how these experiences shaped you, and how you can make comfortable changes that support you to live a joyful, balanced, inspired, and fulfilling life.
