I am a clinical psychologist by profession. During our time together, my role will entail providing a holding, supportive, non-judgement and unconditional acceptance to help you navigate and understand what is that makes you mentally and emotionally unwell. I am curious about your story. Do you need help processing a trauma or loss, perhaps you're currently dealing with various stressors or relational problems. Are you experiencing a low mood, have a pessimistic outlook on life, diminished interest in activities or low self-worth. Could it be constant worry, insomnia, panic attacks? Whatever it is, let's unpack!

I mostly use Psychodynamic to conceptualise and understand the patient.
I believe that the foundation of a successful therapeutic space is the relationship the client has with their therapist and vice versa. Therefore my therapeutic stance is relationally focused. I’m psychodynamically trained but also use other modalities like Cognitive Behavioural Therapy.

Other commonly used approaches include Narrative Exposure Therapy (recollecting and reevaluating trauma) and Psychodynamic Therapy (particularly, the exploration of unconscious and early-life drivers of your challenges).
I have experience in helping clients with challenges relating to depression, anxiety, trauma and grief - as symptoms of existing conditions, and/or as responses to circumstantial stress. I am also experienced in helping clients with the management of neurodivergent disorders (ADHD and Autism Spectrum Disorder). My approach pulls away from over analysis and rumination, towards figuring out how to sustainably feel and be better. This is accomplished by emphasising healthy thinking, health feeling and healthy behaving.

We all can feel overwhelmed, unheard, and lonely; believe we aren't 'good enough' and criticize ourselves for it; experience toxic relationships, trauma, and confusion, or even begin to question ourselves, or who we are. Life happens, we make mistakes & it's okay to admit if we aren't coping. In those times, therapy can be one of the best investments you can make in yourself to help you better cope with challenges, heal from trauma, build healthier relationships & improve your overall well-being.

Psychodynamic Counsellors
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.
