Hello! I’m a neurodiversity- and trauma-focused psychotherapist, creating a space where therapy extends beyond the room. This is integrative psychotherapy, typically spanning 8 to 16 sessions or ongoing (weekly or fortnightly). I'm a clinical director at Balance Psychotherapy, where you’re supported continuously- with sessions, but also with a podcast, app, journal, and free courses that help you stay connected to yourself between sessions. It’s a more complete way of caring for your wellbeing - so you can gently move towards where you want to be.

I’m a highly qualified and professionally experienced psychotherapist/counsellor and psychologist. I have abundant experience working with clients from diverse backgrounds and cultures in the NHS and the private settings, for both the short-term and long-term periods. Rather than offering clients so-called expert’s version of advice, I offer therapeutic work tailored to suit the individual needs of clients, whilst acting as a facilitator to the clients’ process to find their own ways to deal with their issues. This will lead the clients to experience self-discovery and self-acceptance while strengthening their self-healing process.

I am an OCD and related disorders specialist. I have led a highly specialist national NHS service and have worked as a therapist in the NHS for over 20 years. I offer evidence based therapy to treat disorders and psychological difficulties including PTSD, general anxiety, phobias, low self esteem, eating disorders, depression and perfectionism. My clients often report feeling stuck in a pattern of thinking and behaviour and want to make real and lasting change. My approach focuses on identifying and working through what is maintaining the difficulties and helps clients to gain the tools to keep them-self well once therapy has ended.

Clients often describe me as approachable and easy to talk to. I aim to create an environment where you feel comfortable enough to express your authentic self, without fear of criticism or misunderstanding. Whether you are facing anxiety, grief, relationship struggles, or a sense of being “stuck,” I offer a gentle, non-judgmental presence and practical guidance to help you explore new perspectives and possibilities. Humility is at the heart of my practice. I see counselling not as a position of authority, but as a collaborative process in which your experiences, values, and goals take centre stage.

To me, psychotherapy is the opportunity to explore, and eventually accept yourself fully – to deepen your understanding of yourself, your responses, and your relationship with the people and the world around you. A process of awareness that can help you learn and heal from the trauma of your past.  I had an unusual upbringing with very 'alternative' parents (hence the name) which meant that I was exposed to many weird and wonderful people, ideas and experiences from an early age. This came with its ups and downs, but fundamentally it has helped me develop a deep understanding of what it means to be human.

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.

I am a warm, experienced psychologist and psychotherapist offering therapy for adults experiencing anxiety, depression, stress, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, and periods of feeling stuck or overwhelmed.

Whatever has brought you here, therapy can offer a calm, compassionate and confidential space to speak openly, make sense of your experiences, and begin to find a way forward.

Counsellor, MBACP

We all have moments when we feel low, stressed, anxious, depressed and just sometimes we can't seem to let go of our past experiences. Believing that the relationship between therapist and client is key, I aim to create a safe, warm space where clients can be heard and understood, to explore the depths of their thoughts and feelings, allowing them to speak the unspoken. I understand that each individual experience is unique and therefor tailor therapy to the needs of each client separately.

Therapy is a space for you: to feel understood and listened to. Perhaps for the first time. And it is through this fundamental encounter that you can feel more able and alive. Our work together can support you in making a change, reflecting on painful experience, bearing a loss, finding a purpose. It can support you in these - and more - through creating new awareness, making helpful connections and finding a way forward. Therapy provides a way for you to understand, confront, resolve, heal and grow. I provide a safe, welcoming space for you to explore whatever it is that you need and want. In confidence and without judgement.

Waitlist for new clients
I offer psychoanalytic psychotherapy for people who want to understand themselves more deeply and make lasting changes, rather than seeking a quick fix to a particular problem. If you have had short term therapies (e.g. CBT, DBT etc), found relief from your symptoms but feel unsatisfied because you know the deeper underlying issues remain unaddressed, then I can be of help to you. The psychoanalytic work I do is careful, gradual and in-depth. It unfolds over time and takes place in person at my consulting room, providing a stable and confidential setting in which difficult thoughts and feelings can be explored.
