About me
I am a psychodynamic psychotherapist, providing in person sessions from my rooms at Purley CR8 and Bethnal Green E2.
I have over 10 years experience of working with people experiencing a broad range of emotional difficulties including anxiety, depression, low self-esteem bereavement, and conflicts in their personal and professional relationships
Before establishing my private practice I provided psychotherapy in NHS units, including working with women survivors of childhood sexual abuse, and as a counsellor for a bereavement charity.
I offer a secure and confidential environment in which to explore your difficulties, and establish a treatment plan that will be specific to your needs.
I draw upon psychoanalytic and psychodynamic approaches. The British Psychoanalytic Council's website (https://www.bpc.org) has information on this approach, and also on the PSA accredited register for practicing psychotherapists.
The initial consultation is an opportunity for us to meet, and for you to find out how I work and ask me any questions. We may meet for more than one consultation to get to know each other, and to make decisions about the best way forward for you.
