More often than not, the roots of emotional problems go deeper than normal awareness can reach, and my role is to enable you to identify, and focus on, some of the destructive ways of relating to yourself and others that might leave you feeling depressed, anxious or alone. Together, we will create a safe and creative environment, which will help you to explore the different aspects of yourself – some which harmoniously coexist, and others that are at odds with each other.

I am a counsellor practicing feminist, somatic and psychodynamic therapy.
As a feminist, queer, neurodivergent woman of color, my experiences deepen my understanding of marginalisation. I focus on gender, disability, racial, and intergenerational trauma and am committed to anti-discriminatory, LGBTQIA+ affirming practices.
I want to explore with you: how to be ourselves in this contradictory and confusing world. We are asked to suppress ourselves, yet rarely asked what we truly want or who we want to become. These suppressions are rooted in our past, culture, and relationships, eroding trust in ourselves and others.

I’ve worked with adults and young people since 2009 across the NHS, schools, post-adoption services, domestic violence charities, and private practice. I specialise in attachment, early trauma, depression, low self-esteem, anxiety, grief, emotional dysregulation, and adoption-related issues and neurodivergence.
Many clients I work with feel overwhelmed, anxious, or disconnected from themselves and others, often carrying the impact of childhood or relational wounds. They seek to feel more grounded, confident, and self-compassionate while reconnecting with their strengths and identity.

Sometimes people seek therapy because of a specific problem, such as feeling anxious or depressed. Other times, it's due to a difficult life transition or a sense of being stuck in repeating patterns, feeling empty or unfulfilled. For others, there’s no clear reason, just a sense that something isn’t quite right, and an idea that therapy could perhaps help make sense of it. Exploring these feelings with another person can open doors to understanding and offer glimpses of different ways of being that may have been previously out of reach.

Psychoanalytic Counsellors
Does psychoanalytic therapy work?
Psychoanalytic therapy derives from the work of Sigmund Freud. In this type of therapy, discovering buried thoughts and emotions from the unconscious will help a person work through their difficulties and negative behaviours. Research shows that psychoanalytic therapy can be highly effective, with patients reporting improvement in mood, quality of life, and overall well-being.
How long are people typically in psychoanalytic therapy?
Traditional psychoanalysis is in-depth and is conducted in five sessions every week. Today, modern psychoanalytic therapy is less intense and normally incorporates as few as one or two sessions a week. In some cases, positive change can occur quickly. However, if the condition, difficulty, or behaviour is deep-seated, improvement may require many months or years of therapy.
Is psychoanalytic therapy suitable for young people?
Children and adolescents can benefit from this type of therapy. Many kids and teens are often unable to form and communicate their thoughts and emotions. Psychoanalytic therapy uses specific techniques such as dream analysis, symbolism, and free association or word association; all of which can be useful tools for less-communicative young people. Through this therapy, a patient will hopefully make connections between what they feel inside and how the world works outside.
Can psychoanalytic therapy be done online?
Modern-day psychoanalytic therapy is very different from traditional psychoanalysis. While an individual can sit face-to-face with the psychoanalyst for multiple sessions a week, they do not have to. Today, psychoanalytic therapy can be effectively conducted online or by phone. The key is that the individual confronts what is repressed and avoided, and this can be done whether in person or over online video.
