About me

I am a psychodynamic psychotherapist, working in person from my private consulting room in North London. I can also offer sessions online, if needed. I offer sessions at a frequency of one to three times per week. 

Psychodynamic psychotherapy is a form of in-depth therapy which aims for a better understanding of ourselves and our inner world. It emphasises the importance of unconscious processes and past experiences. Often, difficulties we experience in our present lives go beyond the current problem and are rooted in the past. Psychotherapy's exploratory approach provides a space for important thoughts, feelings and questions to emerge at the right time. 

In a space where you can speak freely and be listened to without judgement, we can think together about what is troubling you and identify unhelpful patterns or thoughts. Gaining insights into these connections can be difficult, but engaging with the psyche in this way can also bring relief and open up new ways of thinking - creating possibilities for long-lasting change. 

If you would like to explore psychotherapy further, you can contact me to arrange free 20-minute introductory call. Here, we will explore how we may work together and whether psychotherapy is the right treatment for you. 

Training, qualifications & experience

I have several years' experience as a psychotherapist. I am registered with the British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC), and am a member of the Society of Analytical Psychology (SAP) and the International Association of Analytical Psychology (IAAP). 

I hold a BA in Psychology from Swansea University and an MA in Jungian and Post-Jungian Studies at the University of Essex. I completed extensive post-graduate training at the SAP, a leading and internationally renowned professional body for Jungian analysts and psychotherapists.

Wheelchair user access

Wheelchair-accessible premises should have step-free access for wheelchair users and individuals who are unable to climb stairs. If a Counsellor's premises aren't step-free, they may offer alternative services such as telephone/web-based appointments, home visits, or meeting clients in different location, so you can choose the option that suits you best.

You can contact the Counsellor to discuss the options available.

Under the Equality Act 2010 service providers have a duty to make reasonable adjustments to ensure that individuals with disabilities can access their service. You can read more about reasonable adjustments to help you to access services on the CAB website.
