Somatic Counselling in London

Psychotherapist, MSc, MBABCP

My integrative approach includes talking therapy, compassion-focused methods, somatic work, ERP for OCD, and Trauma-Focused CBT & Sensorimotor Psychotherapy for PTSD.
You may feel stuck in cycles of anxiety and shame, or perhaps long-standing OCD is making daily life difficult. You might be navigating a painful transition—loss, the end of a relationship, divorce, or stepping into motherhood—and finding that old fears or childhood feelings are resurfacing. When life or identity shifts, everything can feel upside down, overwhelming, or uncertain. If you would like to explore what is happening, build self-acceptance, and feel more grounded and connected, get in touch.

Conflict sits at the heart of most human struggle: with others, with ourselves, with the parts of life that resist resolution. I work with individuals and couples, including people navigating complex questions about desire, connection and relationship. This is work that asks for honesty, and I bring the same in return: warmth, directness, and a willingness to go wherever the work needs to go.

I also offer Cognitive behaviour therapy, ACT, DBT, Compassion focused therapy and somatic techniques for mind-body holistic healing.
I also have experience working with adults with ADHD, particularly individuals who are high-functioning yet struggle with focus, emotional regulation, chronic overoverwhelm, or burnout. This often overlaps with anxiety, perfectionism, and trauma-related patterns, and therapy focuses on understanding these experiences in a psychologically meaningful way.

Whatever your reason for being here, I will meet you where you’re at. My wish is for you to feel heard, seen, valued and understood, so that together, we can create a safe collaborative space for you to explore what is going on for you. As an integrative psychotherapist specialising in re-integrating emotional trauma, I have extensive experience of helping clients to process and release their pain.

If you’re reading this, you might be feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or simply in need of someone to talk to.

I'm a qualified, BACP-registered therapist who works with adults (18+) in-person in West London and online. Often, they're dealing with anxiety, depression or problematic relationships. In many cases, they're trying to manage feelings which are keeping them from moving forward in life or being as productive and fulfilled as they'd like to be. Sometimes it's as simple as realising that something just doesn't feel quite right. Or a sense that their emotions, behaviours and mindset are not serving them as well as they could.

You may be feeling out of touch with yourself, as though you’re always putting on a front or staying on high alert just to get through the day. On the outside, you might seem like you’re coping well and keeping everything together, but inside there’s a sense of exhaustion and being overwhelmed. It may even be difficult to recall the last time you felt genuinely relaxed or able to enjoy things. If you’re looking for a space where you can begin to understand these experiences more deeply, you’re welcome here.

This approach is grounded in Western psychodynamic theory, mindfulness and Eastern wisdom traditions and the role of somatic enquiry in trauma and healing.

You will find support to explore emotions that may have previously felt overwhelming or out of reach​. Through this process there is the oppertunity to develop greater self-awareness, change old patterns and transform your relationships with others and with yourself.

This world may be on fire and often totally unfair, but if we have the access to a good-enough therapeutic alliance, we may start to build the resilience needed to live in this world, resisting and changing what we need as we go. Therapy isn’t an easy choice, but then neither is suffering. Suffering may not be a choice, but once there is more awareness of what is not working in our thinking and in our lives, we may start to realise we hold the potency for change and growth to happen. Therapy is a brave place where we can perhaps get more in touch with the roots of our suffering so we can work towards a more harmonious way of being

My training is in Humanistic and Somatic Therapy.
My approach is shaped by over 15 years’ experience working with individuals and couples. I help people understand who they are, what they want, and what may be getting in the way. For some, that means slowing things down enough to really feel what is there, so their needs can come into clearer focus. For others, it is about having a space where they can hear themselves speak and process, without being judged or made wrong. Often, the work is also about recognising the inner resources that are already there, and building what is needed to feel more steady, more connected, and more able to respond to life as it is.
