I am an experienced Psychodynamic psychotherapist and EMDR therapist working in private practice in London Bridge and Weybridge and have years of experience working in NHS. Psychological problems are common and may affect anyone at any point in their lives. Some are short lived and are linked to a single traumatic event and respond well to brief focused psychotherapy such as EMDR; others may be linked to early relational problems and respond better to longer term Psychodynamic Psychotherapy.

I like helping people resolve trauma & also helping people with anxiety such as health concerns. I am also skilled in helping people experiencing depression and low self-esteem. CBT has much evidence to support it being effective in treating common mental health issues by unlocking unhelpful thoughts and unhelpful behaviours which keep people stuck. We would work together to help you achieve your goals. I find that approaches such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) & Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT) alongside CBT combined are often more effective and therapy needs to be at your pace to be successful.

At various points in our lives, we all experience feelings, thoughts and events that we find challenging. You might be feeling anxious or depressed, finding it difficult to come to terms with something that has happened in the past, or worried about what the future will bring. Perhaps you feel stuck in a difficult situation, or caught between what seem like impossible choices. You may be seeking an opportunity to think about who you are, what is important to you, and the kind of life you want to lead.

I imagine if you are reading this, you or someone you know needs help understanding or coping with something that is going on right now. If this is the case I am sorry you or they are finding things difficult. I understand that trying to choose a therapist is also a daunting task. I remember how I felt when seeking therapeutic help. I felt anxious and wondered if I could share things with a complete stranger. Probably the most important thing is that you meet someone you can get on with and build trust. The 15 minuite free call I offer will hopefully provide an opportunity for us to get to know each other a little.

Perhaps you work hard and you’re close to burning out. Or you’ve been living for others, not thinking of yourself. Maybe you carry pain, exhaustion, or anxiety that seem connected to your life story. Or you’re self-sabotaging. We all have a relational ‘operating system’ that shapes how we are in the world. It can seem hard-wired, but we can change. In therapy we can open it up and have a look, understanding old connections and rewiring for new possibilities. Moving beyond whatever’s brought you here. This is the work I love to do. Please get in touch: I'd love to hear more about what’s going on, and see whether I can help.

Life can feel overwhelming at times—whether it’s the relentless pressure of a high-stakes career, grappling with loss, or struggling to fully accept yourself. Everyone faces moments of uncertainty, anxiety, and challenge. Whatever you're going through, you don’t have to navigate it alone. I’m a trained counsellor with extensive experience in the financial services sector, where stress and burnout are very familiar. However, my practice is not just for those working in high-pressure careers. I also provide support for anyone dealing with trauma, bereavement, loss, anxiety, belonging, phobias, and other wellbeing challenges.

Sometimes life gets really hard - complicated, confusing and painful. You're feeling anxious, down or depressed and you can't work out why. Maybe you do know why, but you've never felt able to speak about the reasons with anyone. The pace of modern life or past experiences can often make you feel that you have to try and deal with your difficulties by yourself, by sweeping them under the carpet or putting on a brave face. Perhaps it has seemed that if you just keep going, one day you’d wake up and your problems will have disappeared - but they haven't. So now you've decided to try something new, to seek some help.
