About me
I am a Psychodynamic Psychotherapist and supervisor. I am based within the NHS and in private practice offering both in-person and online sessions. I have 6 years experience working at the Priory and my approach is grounded in the principles of psychodynamic psychotherapy, which explores the influence of unconscious processes, early relational experiences, and the dynamics that emerge within the therapeutic relationship.
I work with a wide range of emotional difficulties and mental health concerns, offering both open-ended and time-limited therapy on a weekly basis. Alongside individual work, I facilitate group therapy, providing a reflective space for shared exploration, support, and psychological growth.
I strive to create a safe, containing environment in which complex or painful feelings can be understood and worked through. Therapy can help illuminate parts of ourselves that may have been hidden, misunderstood, or difficult to articulate - allowing for greater emotional clarity and deeper self-connection.
In addition to clinical therapy, I conduct autism assessments using gold-standard diagnostic tools: the ADOS-2 and the ADI-R. These structured assessments are suitable for adolescents and adults seeking clarity around neurodiversity, and are carried out with clinical rigour and sensitivity.
I also offer psychodynamic supervision for both qualified therapists and those in training. Whether you’re in private practice or working in a clinical setting, I aim to provide a thoughtful, collaborative space to support your therapeutic thinking and professional development. Supervision sessions are held remotely.
Alongside my clinical work, I offer group analytic consultation and reflective spaces to organisations seeking to better understand the emotional life of their teams and workplace dynamics. These sessions can support staff wellbeing, surface unconscious processes within groups, and promote healthier communication and collaboration across professional systems.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a BACP-accredited Psychodynamic Psychotherapist with postgraduate training in psychodynamic practice, an MA in Psychoanalytic Studies and a BA in Psychology. I have worked across NHS, private and specialist mental health settings, including several years at The Priory with adults and young people. I also provide clinical supervision and have further training in Group Analysis and specialist autism assessment. My work is grounded in psychodynamic and psychoanalytic thinking, with a particular focus on depth, complexity and the patterns that sit beneath presenting difficulties.
Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
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.

Further information
Our first meeting would be an initial consultation - an opportunity for you to talk about what’s brought you to therapy and what you hope to gain from it. We’ll explore some of your history and current concerns, and begin to get a sense of how we might work together. This may take more than one session if we feel we need more time to decide whether ongoing therapy feels right for you.
We’ll also review the therapeutic contract, and you’ll be welcome to ask any questions you may have about the process.
Sessions are available face-to-face or online. While I believe in-person work offers a deeper connection and therapeutic immediacy, I also understand the practical benefits of remote sessions and am happy to accommodate them where appropriate.
