Psychotherapy is a process of growth and self-discovery. Your 50-minute session will take place on a weekly basis and the work might involve:

​

• Talking about emotional or relationship problems

• Analysing past events and behaviours so that changes can be made

• Assessing ways of thinking and feeling

• Developing new strategies for coping

• EMDR (click the 'EMDR' tab to find out more)

 

All of these elements can alleviate symptoms of distress and promote behavioural transformation over time.

I am experienced in both long-term and short-term work in various settings: NHS, Transport for London, charitable organisations and private practice. I have worked at length with issues of trauma as well as LGBTQ+ and BAME communities. I specialise in Integrative Psychotherapy (drawing on all schools of psychology), meaning that therapy can be tailored to suit clients' personality and needs.

​

I lean on Psychodynamic, Humanistic and Existential schools of thought and my approach is informed by modern evidence-based research that incorporates a holistic understanding of the body-mind connection. I understand that the therapist-client relationship is key to successful therapy, and must always contain the four key elements of comfort, clarification, encouragement and solidarity.

 

I am committed to creating a space for you that is accepting, where you feel safe enough to tell your story. I believe that it is precisely this acceptance that facilitates my clients in addressing their problems and urges them towards self-growth and emotional well-being.

​

My aim is to help you to feel empowered and secure in your relationships with yourself and others, to experience inner healing and to thrive in life.
