CBT Therapist / Somatic Work (Alexander Technique)

About me

I am interested in helping people overcoming emotional difficulties, pains and challenging situations in their lives. Anxiety, depression, guilt, shame to name a few. CBT helps understanding the story that you bring into the therapy session and helping exploring healthier ways of thinking that lead to emotional disturbances. Very often the way we feel is a consequence of our holding of unhealthy beliefs or mindsets. CBT helps shift those unhealthy habitual ways of thinking to healthier alternatives ones. In that way, we can reestablish a more balanced way of living.

As a CBT therapist, I am qualified to use Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Compassion Focus Therapy (CFT) to name a few. Also, as a qualified Alexander Technique teacher, I am interested in the body/mind connection and explore that within the session.

Find me in North West London NW8, for in-person sessions. We can also have a mixture between in-person and online sessions.

I am available:
Mon, Tues, Thurs – 9am to 3pm (GMT)
