About me

I offer you a safe space in a world lacking safe spaces for many.

I have trained in Integrative Psychotherapy and as such use an approach tailored to you, as our relationship emerges for both of us in the sessions. I integrate creativity and play as well as the conventional ideas you may have about therapy.

At some point in our lives, we all experience feelings of anxiety, sadness, depression, panic or anger. You might think something is intrinsically wrong with you, but you cannot put your finger on it.

Psychotherapy is one way to explore and understand what you are experiencing and gain insight into how to move forward. I believe the most important aspect of therapy is the quality and depth of the relationship between therapist and client. This ensures effective therapy and can facilitate meaningful change.

I offer long-term, short-term, online and telephone therapy and work with a range of issues, including but not limited to, anxiety, depression, bereavement, relationship and identity issues.

I have a particular interest in exploring how young adults/adults relate to and define masculinity in a rapidly moving and demanding society.  Fluidity in gender and sexuality raise the question; how is it for young men to navigate non-binary and gender fluidity as opposed to the 'Andrew Tate' idea of masculinity?

I also hold an interest in working with trauma and work to provide my clients with the tools to navigate their relationships better and aim to provide a warm, safe environment from which the client can explore their thoughts and feelings in more depth.

Training, qualifications & experience

I trained through Middlesex University and Metanoia Institute, one of the leading psychotherapy training institutes in the UK, achieving a Postgraduate Diploma (level 7) in Integrative Psychotherapy.

I have worked in private practice since 2019 and see clients in person at Kensal Rise and via Zoom.

I have worked in various counselling settings including long-term therapy as well as South London & Maudsley NHS in GP practices delivering short-term referral services.
