If you’re struggling with anxiety, depression, loss, trauma, or another emotional difficulty, I offer a safe, understanding space where you can begin to make sense of what you’re going through and start the process of healing. Many of the people I work with describe feeling overwhelmed by their thoughts, stuck in unhelpful patterns, or weighed down by self-criticism or painful memories. Others find themselves disconnected from who they are, unsure how to move forward after loss or change. Whatever you’re facing, I will meet you with empathy and respect — helping you to find clarity, relief, and new ways of coping.

Many of the people I work with are struggling with questions of faith, identity, and culture, often alongside a loss of meaning or a fractured relationship with belief, responsibility, and self. I work with people who want to understand themselves properly, not just manage symptoms. Experiences such as religious trauma, diaspora identity, internalised racism, and racial trauma sit at the centre of my work. My role is not to offer quick fixes. It is to help you think clearly about your life, your history, and the patterns you find yourself repeating, especially the ones you already recognise but cannot shift.

EMDR for Anxiety. You're exhausted from holding it all together. From the outside, you look successful, the career, the results, the competence. But inside? You're running on empty, second-guessing everything, waiting for someone to realise you're not as capable as they think. The anxiety that was supposed to disappear once you "made it"? Still there. The perfectionism driving your success? Also driving you into the ground. That voice saying you're not good enough? Won't shut up. You're carrying workplace trauma, burnout, and patterns so familiar they feel like part of you. Talking hasn't shifted it. That's where EMDR comes in.

I am a Consultant Psychologist and work specifically with people who have OCD or Trauma or both. In 27 years of specialist practice, I have helped 1000+ people regain their lives. It's not your fault if previous therapy hasn't yet yielded the desired results. Often, this is due to a lack of therapist expertise. I tailor therapy to exactly what is needed for YOUR issues. Therefore, your time & monetary investment is often less with me than with other non-specialist psychologists. I see only a small number of clients, so I can offer you the highest level of service. I currently hold a waitlist. Please EMAIL me. No AXA insurance.

Many clients come to therapy feeling stuck, overwhelmed by anxiety, navigating a late ADHD diagnosis, or processing the impact of a significant life event. Often, we find ourselves repeating patterns we don’t fully understand, outwardly competent, high performing, even exceptional, yet internally disconnected from a sense of satisfaction or happiness. As a CBT psychotherapist, I combine evidence-based approaches with genuine curiosity and compassion. I offer a safe, supportive space where we can gently explore your experiences, make sense of what’s happened, and work collaboratively to create meaningful lifelong change.
