I am a psychodynamic psychotherapist with a private practice in Bristol and Somerset.
My practice is informed by psychoanalytic theory which considers that there is more to consciousness than meets the eye - we have feelings, thoughts and impulses that we are often not aware of. Conveying this understanding through interpretation aims to help you gain insight into your emotional states and find relief and enrichment in your personal life.

I also work with couples in person through Somerset Counselling Centre, where low‑cost rates are available. Using a unique 2:2 format, your relationship is supported by two qualified therapists working together. This approach creates a balanced, secure space where both partners feel equally heard, and offers rich insight into complex relational patterns.

My core way of working is psychodynamic which means that we look at how your past may be impacting on your present.
I believe that change is possible and that counselling can change lives.
Life throws challenges at all of us and sometimes these can feel overwhelming. You may be feeling stuck in negative behaviours and patterns of thinking. You may be suffering with depression and anxiety and are unsure how to cope. You may be experiencing difficulty in relationships and relational dynamics.
The process of counselling brings awareness and without awareness, we cannot change.

As a Clinical & Educational Psychologist, I work with adults and children with a range of difficulties who want to improve their lives. Clients I see struggle with attachment trauma, anxiety, depression, physical symptoms and self-criticism. They often feel, anxious, drained, live with pain, gastro problems, phobias and/or PTSD,ADHD, or FND symptoms. Relationships are challenging, and trusting others to access help is a struggle. Through our work, we develop greater awareness of how they relate to others in intimate relationships, and the impact this has on their body and mind, which helps them relate to themselves differently too..

Is psychodynamic therapy evidence-based?
Studies have found psychodynamic therapy to be effective in treating conditions like social anxiety, eating disorders, chronic pain, some personality disorders, and depression; indeed, some studies have found it to be just as effective as CBT or medication. What’s more, several studies have found that the benefits of psychodynamic therapy tend to endure—even grow—long after treatment has ended.
How long does psychodynamic therapy last?
Unlike CBT and other more structured forms of therapy, psychodynamic therapy tends to be open-ended and may not be limited to a set number of sessions. It is common for clients to be in therapy for a year or longer and to see their therapist one to three times a week, though the exact schedule and timeline may vary depending on a client’s challenges and progress. However, brief psychodynamic therapy is available, which tends to be more goal-oriented and typically unfolds over 16 to 30 sessions.
Does psychodynamic therapy work?
Research finds that psychodynamic therapy can help someone manage or reduce symptoms of diagnosable mental health conditions like depression or anxiety. The modality may also offer a range of benefits that are harder to measure but just as valuable—such as increased self-worth or healthier relationships. While no therapy type will work for everyone, research and anecdotal evidence suggest that psychodynamic therapy can be highly effective.
What are the limitations of psychodynamic therapy?
Some meta-analyses have concluded that there is little evidence to suggest that psychodynamic therapy can effectively treat certain mental health conditions such as PTSD, OCD, or psychosis, though it is sometimes used to do so. More broadly, the open-ended, free-association structure of psychodynamic therapy may be frustrating for clients who prefer a more structured, time-limited, or goal-oriented approach.
