About me
You may be holding things together at work, showing up for others and managing your responsibilities, while privately feeling anxious, exhausted or disconnected from yourself.
Perhaps you struggle to switch off, replay conversations or question whether you are doing enough. You may understand why you feel this way, yet find it difficult to change. Or perhaps you cannot quite name what is wrong, you just know you don’t want to keep feeling like this.
Therapy offers space to explore what is happening beneath the surface, without the pressure to have everything figured out.
I’m an integrative and Gestalt psychotherapist offering face-to-face therapy in Soho, Central London, and online across the UK.
What I can help with
I support adults experiencing anxiety, burnout, low mood, relationship difficulties and the lasting effects of difficult or traumatic experiences.
Many of my clients are thoughtful, capable people who are used to handling things themselves. They may feel overwhelmed by expectations, find it difficult to set boundaries or spend much of their energy looking after other people’s needs. Some feel caught between outward achievement and an inner sense of dissatisfaction or self-doubt.
Together, we can explore what keeps these difficulties going and what you need to move towards a more sustainable, fulfilling way of living.
When you understand the pattern but still feel stuck
You may have reflected deeply on your experiences or had therapy before. Perhaps this helped you make sense of your past, but familiar feelings and reactions still take over in everyday life.
My approach brings together understanding, emotional experience and awareness of the body. We might notice what happens when you speak about a difficult relationship: your breathing changes, you become tense, or you dismiss your feelings before you have had time to explore them.
Paying attention to these moments can help us understand how you respond to pressure, protect yourself and relate to others. It can also give you opportunities to practise expressing a need, setting a boundary or responding to yourself with greater compassion.
There is room for your history and for what is happening in your life now. We work at a pace that respects your boundaries and readiness.
How I work
My style is warm, curious and collaborative. I offer space to speak openly, alongside thoughtful questions and observations that can help you see your experience more clearly.
Being an integrative therapist means I draw on different therapeutic approaches and adapt the work to you. Gestalt is central to my practice, with its attention to present experience, relationships and the connection between thoughts, emotions and the body.
Alongside talking, we may use metaphor, drawing, gentle movement or practical experiments, where these feel useful and comfortable. We will discuss what we are doing and why, and you can choose whether to try something.
I offer both short-term therapy focused on a particular difficulty and longer-term work exploring deeper or recurring patterns.
Who I work with
I welcome adults from a wide range of backgrounds, including professionals, business owners, creatives and people living away from their home country.
My practice is inclusive of LGBTQIA+ clients, including trans and non-binary people, and neurodivergent clients. There is space to explore how culture, identity, relationships and experiences of belonging shape your life.
Coaching for professionals and business owners
Alongside psychotherapy, I offer coaching for people who find that perfectionism, self-doubt, procrastination or difficulty setting boundaries are affecting their working lives.
We explore the emotional barriers behind these difficulties and identify practical ways forward, with attention to both your ambitions and your wellbeing.
A little about me
My first career was in engineering. That background gave me a lasting respect for science and research, alongside a curiosity about how different parts of our experience influence one another.
Having lived in several countries, I also appreciate how moving between cultures can affect identity, relationships and our sense of home. Outside work, science, nature and art keep me curious and grounded.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a BACP-registered integrative psychotherapist with a four-year diploma in Gestalt Psychotherapy from the Institute of Integrative Gestalt Psychotherapy in Poland.
My further training includes postgraduate study in Coaching and Mentoring, alongside training in crisis intervention, trauma, and body and movement in psychotherapy.
My experience includes private practice, NHS talking therapies, mental health inpatient settings and charitable organisations. These roles have involved supporting people with a wide range of emotional and psychological difficulties, working both with immediate concerns and with more longstanding patterns.
In NHS talking therapies, I provided short-term counselling for people experiencing difficulties including anxiety and depression. My work in mental health units also developed my experience of supporting people during periods of significant distress and working alongside other mental health professionals.
Alongside my psychotherapy practice, I work as a Mindset Coach at the Academy for Women Entrepreneurs. I support women business owners in exploring the emotional and psychological barriers affecting their work, making decisions and developing their businesses with greater clarity.

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
