Somatic Counselling in London

While you may be seeking therapy to help you out of a dark or difficult time- due to anxiety, depression, relationship issues, crisis of meaning, insomnia... therapy can be a powerful gift. We learn a great deal about ourselves and others- ultimately about living life with more ease and enjoyment. We'll get curious about what you learnt growing up: your world-view, your assumptions and even your bodily responses to situations that you face today. We'll see what has worked for you and what causes pain or limits you- to unblock and clear the path forward with compassion, kindness, insight, and even at times, a sense of humour.

I am a bilingual Arts Therapist and Clinical Psychologist trained in psychodynamic psychotherapy with many years of experience. I offer a safe and non-judgemental space where you can explore issues through talking and/or using a more imaginative, symbolic approach using creative mediums. We can also use mindfulness and breathing exercises. Each journey of exploration is unique. I will work together with you to bring into awareness unconscious patterns, fostering insight, change and growth.

I help you access a new level of depth, fulfilment and a renewed sense of wholeness through disrupting survival based patterns and trauma integration work. Step into a life you are meant to be living that are in line of your values.

I'm a psychotherapist (MA, MSc), Somatic trauma therapist and EMDR therapist working with depression, anxiety, loss, sexual identity, self-esteem & relationship difficulties, abuse, trauma, PTSD.

I am a BACP registered psychotherapist and coach. I provide a non-judgemental, open and safe space for you to talk. My approach is warm, empathetic and integrative, utilising several different ways of working relative to each client. I am able to offer you a bespoke therapeutic relationship, having worked with a diverse range of client issues through both the NHS and private practice. After spending several months studying yoga in Northern India, I developed a keen interest in body work and somatic therapy, working with you to understand how unresolved emotions, stresses and traumas may have been internalised.

Are you feeling anxious, demotivated, and or depressed? Perhaps you feel like you're at your wits end and don't know what to do? Do you ever feel inadequate, insecure or like you don't belong? Do you ever wish you could just feel more confident? Do you find yourself caught in a cycle of negative thinking or trying to avoid your problem but it just won't go away? I have been working successfully with clients with low confidence, self-esteem, social anxiety, social phobia, and existential issues in a counselling or coaching capacity. My style is collaborative, solution-focussed, & somatic , tailored to you and your individual needs.

Do you experience anxiety, depression, grief, emptiness or anger? Do you feel alone or overwhelmed by these feelings ? Most people do and most people feel they have no other option but to stay feeling that way. The truth is that everyone will experience difficulties and difficult situations either in their personal or work life. Some are harder to deal with on your own. A friendly, experienced, listening ear can really make a positive difference to your life.

In my work as a Psychologist and Integrative Psychotherapist I bring together cognitive and somatic ways of working to provide effective treatment. I use a range of models, including psychodynamic and humanistic approaches, mindfulness, embodiment and movement psychotherapy. Sometimes the nature of our experience is far more complex than words can describe and this form of therapy encourages the individual to integrate what often is felt ineffably. By supporting the creative potential of each individual’s body-mind, healing begins.

Having experienced difficult times in my personal life, I have developed a deep appreciation for the transformative power that exists within each of us. I believe that therapy can serve as a catalyst to unlock this potential for healing. As an integrative practitioner, I incorporate a range of psychological theories and techniques in my practice, guided by research findings and the specific needs and preferences of my clients. I deeply value diversity and recognise that each person's experience is unique.

Have overwhelming events of the past marked your relationships with yourself and the world? Does your present life context trigger difficult emotional reactions, interpersonal or professional challenges? Do you suffer from lingering mental health issues and want to improve your wellbeing? Therapy can provide a safe trasformational opportunity to explore and heal what is difficult in your life. My role is to offer you a confidential and non-judgmental space for understanding, processing and learning how to manage unresolved, often conflicting feelings, thoughts and actions which impact quality of your life and relationships.

I am passionate about supporting you to live fully within the wisdom of your body. I support those who have experienced a disconnection to their body due to sexual trauma, relational abuse, an eating disorder/disordered eating, and reproductive health trauma. I assist clients in their process of coming home to their body through a multidisciplinary and personalized approach that relies on depth psychology, relational somatics, intersectional feminism, and mindfulness. I acknowledge that the relationship women have to their body is complex; my education honours that complexity.

My interest in psychotherapy, spirituality and meditation began after the end of my marriage several years ago, which like many other types of losses, triggered a lot of suffering. ​Life transition, family and friends losses, the breakup of long-term relationships, stress, anxiety and depression are all part of human suffering. However, we have an innate capability, which we can strengthen, that allows us to navigate and, more importantly, learn from our most difficult life experiences.
