About me
I work with adults who may feel stuck in patterns of thinking, feeling, or relating that they find difficult to understand or change. They may be experiencing anxiety, low mood, difficulties in relationships, low self-esteem, or a sense of struggling despite having tried to understand or manage these difficulties on their own. These experiences may be connected to a single traumatic event, repeated or ongoing experiences of trauma, or difficulties that began much earlier in life.
Thoughtful, confidential therapy for adults experiencing persistent difficulties in relationships, anxiety, mood and patterns that feel difficult to change. Rather than focusing only on the immediate problem, psychodynamic therapy explores the underlying patterns, relationships and experiences that may be shaping how you relate to yourself and others.
If you are finding things difficult, feel stuck in patterns that you would like to understand, or simply feel that something in your life is not quite right, I would be happy to hear from you. We can arrange a preliminary appointment to talk about what has brought you to therapy and consider together whether working with me might be helpful.
Training, qualifications & experience
Alongside my private practice, I have worked for a number of years in both inpatient and community NHS settings, across adult mental health, forensic services, and child and adolescent mental health services (CAMHS). I also have experience working within personality disorder and complex needs services.
Member organisations
