Counselling in SW6

Hi there. I provide face-to-face and online counselling (from £55) with the first session free of charge. Together, we can work on helping you cope with what's going on in your life right now, and take time to explore how you might feel better about yourself. My approach is broadly 'psychodynamic', which means we pay close attention to the feelings and beliefs that we hold about ourselves and others, and which have typically taken shape at some earlier time in our lives. We can quickly become stuck in set ways of 'being me', without realising that all of us have a capacity to change in all kinds of unexpected ways.

Are you feeling that things around you are too much or that suddenly you cannot cope with life as you used to? Do you find yourself stuck or in the same situation over and over? I know the feeling of being paralized. I personally find it very difficult to ask for help when I'm in a bad place, and to show my vulnerability to others... I don't want to feel judged and I'd like to be encouraged to try and be myself and to talk freely about everything and anything. For me it's vital that my counsellor is really invested in helping me. I invite you to take that difficult first step and let me be part of your journey to get there

If you feel exhausted by constant anxiety and catastrophizing… If sadness, emptiness, or emotional numbness feels like your default state… If you struggle with low self-worth, shame, and a harsh inner critic… If your mind overthinks, ruminates, and won’t slow down… If trusting others feels unsafe and relationships evoke a fear of rejection, abandonment, or reliving past harm… If unresolved trauma from abuse keeps your body and mind stuck in survival mode… You are not broken—and you are not alone. As your therapist, I will support you in reconnecting with yourself and rebuilding trust in your inner voice.

Life can be overwhelming: loneliness, divorce, grief, parenting or work challenges, even natural transitions can feel isolating and daunting to navigate alone. I offer a safe, confidential space to identify and work through what is troubling you. You can expect to explore unresolved issues and gain greater understanding of yourself and your patterns of relating. I am interested in the roles we take within families, couples and work. Prior to re-training, I had a career in law and finance, so am familiar with high-pressure environments, stress and the search for a healthy life balance.

I am a Counselling Psychologist with experience across the NHS, charity sector, and private practice. Many of the clients I work with appear to cope well outwardly, yet internally feel anxious, overwhelmed, stuck, or disconnected from themselves. Others seek therapy during times of loss, transition, or when longstanding patterns in relationships or self-esteem are no longer sustainable.

Hello and welcome. Perhaps you've found this page because because staying the same no longer works for you - it's too painful. And some part of you is ready for support to help things shift? Modern life can be extremely demanding; relationships, work, families, money, health and social challenges, or even the simple act of daily living can all feel overwhelming. I believe that how we cope with these challenges is shaped by both our present circumstances, and our past experiences, sometimes echoing patterns of which we are unaware. Whatever is bringing you here, therapy can offer a space to pause and reflect.

Are you affected by issues like anxiety, depression, addiction, abuse, loss, or relationships? My approach is compassionate and holistic, incorporating Sensorimotor Psyhotherapy, Internal Family Systems and Emotional Freedom Technique, to treat the somatic, emotional and psychological elements of unresolved trauma. Such symptoms may lie deep within the body, often at an unconscious level, and which traditional talking therapies may fail to address. I value our uniqueness as individuals and believe that we each have an innate capacity for healing and growth. I work with adults and offer both short-term and open-ended work.

I aim at supporting you with the challenges and difficulties you face by reclaiming your own story and narrative. I understand that destructive and painful patterns in behaviours and thoughts serve an adaptive function. With compassion, we can explore what lies behind these protective mechanisms and build curiosity towards oneself. I utilise a jungian lense, embodiment practices, EMDR and IFS.

I work with individuals and couples who appear to be coping outwardly, but remain stuck in patterns of anxiety, emotional disconnection, or sexual difficulties that persist despite insight and effort. This may include low desire, pain during sex, erection or orgasm difficulties, compulsive sexual behaviours, or sex becoming pressured, avoidant, increasingly monitored rather than felt, or distressing. My approach is structured and evidence-based, focused on identifying and changing the patterns that maintain these difficulties.

You might find yourself withdraw from people you love and having the impression no one can understand your pain. You might be at this stage of your life that you are seeking a new identity or the previous roles/ priorities you had in your life don’t satisfy you anymore.
