I have special interest in anxiety, depression, panic attacks, low self esteem, low confidence, identity, men’s issues, work related issues, career and life change.
If you are here, maybe you are feeling stuck, stressed, or disillusioned with work or life in general, or maybe something happened like redundancy, divorce, illness, or the passing of a loved one, that affects your life and causes emotional pain. It can feel like things will never change and it becomes a struggle to navigate life.

I support survivors of domestic violence / Intimate partner violence, to understand and process the emotional and psychological symptoms so that you live your life feeling safe in your own skin, gain peace and joy in everyday moments and trust yourself and others again.
If you struggle to navigate the complexities of parental mental health, domestic violence and abuse (DVA), intimate partner violence (IPV), and bereavement is important to me. Domestic abuse can have far-reaching effects, I want you to know that these symptoms are a natural response to what you’ve experienced. It’s not a reflection of who you are.

Over the last 18 years I’ve sought answers from many sources including the study of philosophy, the practice of yoga and then becoming a yoga teacher. I have studied the field of psychology and qualified with a Post Graduate Diploma in Contemporary Psychotherapy.

I'll create a warm, safe, supportive (yet sometimes challenging) place to help you navigate through the complexities and messiness of your relationships and work- life.
I am a central London-based BACP accredited Integrative Psychotherapeutic Counsellor. I am also a trained coach so weave these two skills into my practice. I specialise in relationships – the most critical being the relationship we have with ourselves, but also our partner, siblings, parents, our children, friends and work colleagues. I also specialise in helping people in highly demanding jobs. I used to work in corporate consultancy and so know first-hand the stresses of such an unforgiving career. Thus, I am more likely to ‘get’ the struggles of what it is like in your role..

The modern pressures of life can take their toll on us – increasing responsibilities and being connected 24/7 can leave us feeling burnt out, anxious, and overwhelmed.
As well as talk therapy, we explore creative and practical ways of working such as visualisations, role play, meditation, dream work– which can really help to draw out what’s going on beneath the surface of the mind. Through this way of working, we’re able to work at depth and honour all aspects of you as a human being (intellect, emotion, unconscious).

By this I mean that I subscribe to the idea of an unconscious and believe events and attitudes from early life can impact on our lives today.
Yet I also know, as a long-time meditator, that paying attention in a non-judgemental fashion enables previously unbearable experiences to be borne and new possibilities discovered. I provide a safe space in which these experiences can be explored. I also worked for many years in NHS hospitals and understand the challenges of working in large organisations

Life Coaching Counsellors
What can I expect from life coaching?
Clients and coaches will typically start by identifying the problem area(s) that the client hopes to address—then, the coach will help the client brainstorm potential solutions and explore concrete techniques to help the client attain their goals. Coaching is typically short-term and focused on finding solutions in the here and now, rather than exploring a client’s past. In addition to strategies aimed at the client’s specific concerns, coaches may encourage general stress management techniques such as meditation.
Can a life coach help treat anxiety?
Because the majority of life coaches are not licensed clinicians, they are not qualified to diagnose or treat anxiety. Anyone struggling with anxiety or another mental health condition should seek help from a licensed mental health practitioner. However, some coaching clients who struggle with subclinical anxiety report that working with their coach on other problems—such as career dissatisfaction or unhealthy habits—has a positive effect on their anxiety.
Can life coaching be done online?
Yes. While life coaching often happens in person, many coaches conduct sessions over the phone or via online platforms such as Zoom or Skype. Because life coaches are not subject to local licensing regulations in the same way that therapists are, they are able to see clients who live in other locations.
How long does life coaching last?
Life coaching tends to be a shorter-term process than therapy, though it does not always unfold over a specific period of time and is instead based on the coach’s or the client’s preferences. Coaching often takes place over three to 12 months but may be shorter or longer if necessary.
