I am a UKCP-accredited Psychotherapist working with adults and older adults in London (N3) and online, English and Japanese spoken. I accept referrals from major private healthcare providers including Bupa, Aviva, AXA Health, and Cigna for psychotherapy sessions. With a focus on exploration with creativity, I support clients experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, burnout, caring-role pressures, bereavement, trauma, and life transitions. I offer both short-term focused work (6–8 sessions) often suitable for insurance or EAP funding, and longer-term therapy for deeper exploration and sustained emotional wellbeing.
My integrative style combines talking therapy with optional creative methods such as drawing or imagery, which can help when words feel limited. The focus is always on your needs, and no art experience is required. This approach can deepen reflection and self-understanding within a safe, supportive therapeutic relationship.
I believe art making is a communication tool for self-expression and as important as verbal communication. Even you may have a pre-existing relationship with art, such an exploration may invite you to re-visit your relationships with many aspects of life in a safe way.

I support clients experiencing stress, anxiety, depression, burnout, caring-role pressures, bereavement, trauma, and life transitions. My clients often find my therapy sessions helpful because the session time allows them to gain clearer perspectives on their issues, and their feeling hurt, helpless, and lost in their situations are validated and alleviated.
