About me

I am a qualified individual and couple psychotherapist/counsellor, offering both short term and long term relationship therapy. I have trained at Tavistock Relationships, a well-reputed institute for psychotherapy and relationship counselling, where I also work as a Visiting Clinician and Assessor.

Starting therapy can be an exciting yet daunting process. You may have a lot of questions or feel trepidation at the idea of embarking on it. What I hope to provide you with is a safe, empathetic and non-judgemental space where we can begin to explore these anxieties and work towards reducing conflict, fostering curiosity and building self-awareness. I specialise in the psychodynamic model, with the focus on making sense of past experiences and understanding its effect on the present.

Below are some of the areas that I work with:

• Difficulty Building Lasting Relationships
• Breakdown of Communication
• Anxiety, Depression, Grief & Loss
• Lack of Intimacy
• Pre Marital Counselling
• Infertility & Trouble Conceiving
• Parenting Difficulties
• Affairs & Betrayals
• Life Transitions
• Separation & Divorce.

I also have experience working with couples and individuals from different ethnic communities and welcome clients from the cross-cultural, mixed-race and immigrant backgrounds.
