Codependency Counselling in London
If you grew up feeling unseen, unsafe, or emotionally alone, those early experiences can quietly shape how you relate to yourself and others. You may find yourself struggling with self-worth, anxiety, people-pleasing, emotional overwhelm, or a sense that something is “wrong” with you — even when life looks fine on the outside. I offer a warm and compassionate space for you to explore whatever is troubling you right now. I support adults who want to heal core wounds, reconnect with themselves, and work somatically with the nervous system to create lasting change.

Hello! I am a qualified and accredited psychotherapist, working from a lovely studio in Wimbledon Village. I work with clients facing a range of difficult issues in their lives. This can be long or short-term work. I accompany my clients along their the journey of deeper self-knowledge, understanding how adverse childhood circumstances left their mark. I help people to discover lost parts of themselves, so they can show up more fully in the world. This involves finding new qualities, taking back projections, reconciling opposites in the psyche and finding balance.

I welcome all survivors of violence and abuse, but especially those historically silenced or pathologised: people diagnosed with what psychiatry calls personality disorders (especially BPD), survivors of colonial violence, and those dismissed as “insane” or materialistically reduced into being owners of a "faulty" brain or genes.
My work bridges three domains: psychology, life sciences, and post-colonial criticism of abusive power structures - be it at home, at work, or in the nation, and in this sense isn't therapy, but psychological formulation towards autonomy and self-authority.

At times the challenges of life can make us feel overwhelmed and isolated and it may feel difficult to talk about our feelings and fears to those closest to us. Feelings of shame, guilt or not knowing where to start can add to the feeling of being alone. I offer a space in which to explore these feelings in a safe and confidential setting without judgement, where together we can begin to understand what brought you to therapy in the first place.

I work with individuals who are navigating emotionally complex inner worlds — often shaped by attachment wounds, loss, identity transitions, or long-standing relational patterns.
My approach is relational, depth-oriented, and attentive to the nervous system. I offer a contained therapeutic space where patterns can be understood, felt, and gradually transformed — rather than simply managed.
I typically work with clients who are seeking ongoing, committed psychotherapy and who are ready to engage in a process that unfolds over time. This allows the work to develop depth, continuity, and trust.

My therapeutic approach is largely transpersonal integrative, which means I am able to integrate other approaches into my work, including humanistic, CBT, solution-focused and expressive/art therapy. How I work is entirely dependent on the needs of the client I am working with. Transpersonal therapy is a holistic healing intervention that evolved from the humanistic work of American psychologist Abraham Maslow in the 1960s. I am a registered member of the UKCP, and I work in accordance with their ethical guidelines. I offer both face-to-face sessions as well as online therapy which is accessible to all regardless of location.

What therapy types help with codependency problems?
Both couples and family therapy and cognitive and behavioral therapy (CBT) can help with the relationship difficulties referred to as codependency. Such problems typically include inappropriate feelings of responsibility for a loved one’s destructive behavior, irrational patterns of thinking about such behavior, and family interaction patterns in which the needs of one troubled member override the needs of others in a household.
What happens in therapy for codependency?
Spouses and family members learn and practice how to interact and support each other in a healthy way without sacrificing their own needs or well-being. They learn the limits of their responsibility for their loved ones and correct faulty patterns of thinking and feeling that underlie codependent behavior. Individuals may be encouraged to nurture an array of social relationships and to cultivate their own talents and interests so that they develop a healthy sense of self outside the family.
How does therapy help a person or couple overcome codependency?
Therapy helps people establish healthy ways of being in a relationship. Spouses and family members learn how to nurture and support one another without sacrificing their own needs or allowing the needs of one person to dominate the dynamic. Individuals learn how to say no and set boundaries, and how to maintain their own identity and self-esteem. Therapy helps people understand that they are not responsible for the feelings and actions of others. It also helps individuals deal with the turbulence that can come from living with a person suffering from such conditions as substance abuse and mental illness.
What is the goal of therapy for codependency?
One goal of therapy for codependency is to alleviate feelings of responsibility for and correct irrational patterns of thinking about loved ones whose behavioral problems override the needs of others in a household. Therapy helps people establish healthy boundaries of behavior and speak up for their own needs in a relationship. In addition, people learn how to maintain a healthy relationship, one in which both parties give and receive equally and are able to retain their own identity.
