About me
I am a psychodynamic psychotherapist working with adults experiencing a wide range of emotional and relational difficulties, including anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, relationship problems, loss, and life transitions.
My approach is open and collaborative. Together, we explore thoughts, feelings, and experiences, considering both what is happening in the present and how earlier experiences may continue to influence your life. By developing a deeper understanding of recurring patterns, it may become possible to respond to yourself and others with greater freedom and choice.
I offer a confidential space in which whatever may be causing distress, confusion, or difficulty can be explored. Sessions last 50 minutes and usually take place weekly. The length and shape of therapy can be considered together, with your individual needs and preferences in mind.
I practise in person from the Kensington Counselling Practice in Gloucester Road and also offer online sessions.
If you are considering therapy, I welcome an initial consultation where we can think together about what has brought you to therapy and whether working together might be helpful.

Further information
In psychodynamic psychotherapy, the focus is not only on symptoms or immediate difficulties, but also on understanding the underlying emotional patterns that may contribute to them. Therapy provides an opportunity to reflect on your experiences in depth and to develop a fuller understanding of yourself and your relationships.
