I work with adults who are struggling, or who despite functioning well sense that something is not quite right — patterns repeating in relationships, at work, or in how they experience themselves. Often these ways of being once served a purpose. In therapy, we explore what lies beneath.
I am a psychodynamic therapist trained at the University of Oxford, with over twelve years of experience in mental health. My approach is relational and rooted in psychodynamic thinking — attending to mind and body, the therapeutic relationship, early experiences, and the unconscious. I offer weekly sessions in London (Kensington), Oxfordshire, and online.
Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced." — James Baldwin
Central to how I work is a belief in each person's capacity to grow when met with understanding, curiosity and depth. If you are wondering whether this way of working might suit you, I offer a free fifteen minute introductory call.
