About me
Do you ever find yourself questioning life or feeling weighed down by emotions you can’t quite name?
Do you feel breathless from stress, surrounded by negativity, or overwhelmed by sadness, grief, or worry?
Perhaps your thoughts race, or you feel on the verge of a meltdown. Maybe you’ve wanted to run away, disappear, or felt stuck and unable to move forward.
Many people struggle with saying “no,” feel haunted by the past, or find themselves repeating unhelpful patterns in relationships. Some cope by drinking, using substances, or overeating. Others feel unfulfilled at work, disconnected in relationships, or unable to reach their full potential.
If any of this resonates with you, you’re not alone, and it’s not a coincidence you are here.
The answers often lie in the unspoken, unseen places within us. If you’re ready to explore those parts and begin a journey of discovery, growth, and healing, I am here to support you.
I am a dual-trained mental health practitioner with 22 years of NHS experience, a qualified Mental Health Nurse, and a Psychodynamic Psychotherapist trained at the Tavistock Clinic. I am a member of both the Tavistock Society of Psychotherapists (TSP) and the British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC).
I work with adults experiencing low mood, anxiety, OCD, psychosis, relationship difficulties, emotional distress, grief, eating problems, neurodevelopmental prob, suicidal ideations and self-harm. I currently offer online therapy and will be offering face‑to‑face sessions in the future.
