I have 20+ years experience working with clients who have complex mental health needs and a forensic past, and those who are highly sensitive and experience their emotions more intensely than the average person. I support clients who present with a wide range of interpersonal and relationship difficulties, emotion regulation disorders such as
BPD
, childhood abuse, bereavement and loss, eating disorders, depression and anxiety and suicidal and self-harming behaviours. I offer clients a thorough assessment of their life history as well as identifying current needs and goals, and a clear, well-defined treatment package.

Though my range of experience is broad, I have a particular interest in working with people who are feeling lost or stuck in life, people who are struggling with a lack of meaning or purpose, and serious mental health conditions such as
borderline
personality disorder or bipolar disorder, as well as people from BAME and LGBTQ+ backgrounds.
Everybody goes through difficult periods in their life from time to time. For some this can just mean a small, irritating problem that just doesn't seem to go away, and for others, it can be something much more serious that makes life seem overwhelming and utterly bleak. Whatever your issue, no matter how apparently large or small, it is my role as a therapist to see, hear, and understand, and to work alongside you to help you find a way through. Flexible appointment times and concessions on fees are always available, and I am open to working with people from any location or time zone.

I believe that with a positive, strong, meaningful and compassionate alliance, therapy is best able to meet the needs of clients with EUPD/
BPD
and PTSD. My specific focus is on supporting clients as they embark on the journey of healing, self awareness and improved emotionalwell-being. Dialectic Behavioural Therapy is the only prescribed treatment for EUPD/
BPD
and with it's highly regarded treatment protocol, you will be able to see real, lasting results. My program offers weekly private sessions and group therapy, with the option of emergency phone coaching when you need that extra help to regain control in a crisis.

I like to work collaboratively with my clients, to help them achieve their individual therapeutic goals. I recognise that every client is different and 'no one size fits all' approach can apply in therapy as everyone has their own unique experiences therefore, I see the importance in tailoring the approach to fit the client. I draw upon a range of therapeutic modalities including: person-centred, psychodynamic and CBT. Over the years I have worked with a variety of presentations such as Depression, Low Mood, Anxiety, Relationships, Interpersonal Difficulties,
Borderline
Personality Disorder (
BPD
) and Trauma.

I have worked with issues ranging from anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation and
borderline
personality disorders amongst other emotional problems.
Throughout my career as a psychologist, I always believed that every individual needs a space. A space where we can talk without being judged, a space where we can share our perspective and an atmosphere where your thoughts would be respected. I would like to provide that space, even one where you just want to share. It is the space where trust is built mutually between the patient and the therapist from the very first session. I believe that therapy is the space where individuals can actualize their potential. I use an eclectic approach as I believe that therapy is tailored to the individual’s needs.

I offer counselling to help you with relationship problems, Depression, Anxiety, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder,
Borderline
Personality Disorder etc.
As an integrative Counsellor/Psychotherapist, I work on the premise that there isn’t just one therapeutic approach that can help a client in all situations. Instead, you are accepted as an individual, with a unique set of circumstances. Using elements of both Psychodynamic & Person Centred Counselling, I will endeavour to help you explore and cope with your problems. Coming from a Person Centred perspective, I understand that you are the expert on yourself and therefore, the focus will be on you, with the aim to help you reach your full potential

I have joined a group of psychotherapists focusing on the treatment of
Borderline
structures.
Our lives can sometimes feel overwhelming. Therapy is a time and a space to be heard, to build awareness, strength and spontaneity. The conversations between client and therapist are unique and precious. Beyond techniques, tools and training, research shows that a successful therapy tends to be based on a relationship, on trust, collaboration and true listening. As a psychotherapist, I am inviting you to explore your own story, in the presence of an attentive and reflective fellow traveller. I work both in English and in French, with clients from diverse countries, ethnicities and cultures.

Borderline Personality (BPD) Counsellors
What is the most successful approach to treating borderline personality disorder?
Dialectical behavior therapy (DBT) is considered the gold standard of treatment for borderline personality disorder. An evidence-based treatment, it addresses the extreme emotional reactivity, the relationship difficulties, and the acts of self-harm that create so much distress for BPD patients. DBT is a comprehensive program that includes both regular individual psychotherapy sessions and weekly group sessions of skills training.
What happens in treatment of borderline personality disorder?
Treatment typically consists of weekly individual therapy sessions that last an hour and group skill-focused instructional sessions that may last up to two hours. Patients are typically given homework “assignments” in which they are asked to practice in their daily life the skills they acquire in therapy. Patients also keep a diary tracking their emotions and impulses as a way to know which situations are most problematic and to help them gain control over their own behavior. Difficult situations and feelings are typically reviewed in therapy sessions and more constructive solutions found.
What kinds of problems does BPD treatment help with?
DBT was initially developed to dampen the self-destructive impulses of chronically suicidal patients. It is now the treatment of choice for borderline personality disorder, a serious condition marked by extreme emotional reactivity, relationship instability, and self-injurious behaviors. Treatment of BPD helps patients tolerate the flux of emotions without acting on them, often with a specific focus on tolerating negative emotions. DBT addresses the core problems of BPD—fear of abandonment, low self-esteem, and impulsivity.
What is the goal of treatment in borderline personality disorder?
The goal of treatment for borderline personality disorder (BPD) is to relieve the extreme emotional distress that patients experience—to curb their emotional reactivity, to minimize their inclination to self-harm, and to reduce their impulsivity. Toward these ends, patients are not only taught an array of new coping skills and techniques for emotional regulation, they are given opportunities to practice them. Another major goal of treatment is interpersonal effectiveness; patients learn and problem-solve ways to effectively communicate in relationships, especially how to ask for what they need as a way to minimize hurt feelings.
