About me
You look like you're coping. You go to work, meet your responsibilities, and keep everything moving. But underneath, you may be feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, anxious, disconnected, lonely or stuck in patterns that no longer serve you.
Perhaps you've experienced trauma that still affects you today. Maybe you struggle with anxiety, stress, burnout, ADHD, low self-esteem, relationship difficulties, or addiction. You may find yourself overthinking, people-pleasing, constantly striving, or feeling as though you have to hold everything together while quietly carrying emotional pain that no one else sees. Therapy offers the opportunity to understand these patterns, process difficult experiences, and create meaningful, lasting change.
I have over 15 years of clinical experience across the NHS, prison services, drug and alcohol treatment services, and private practice in London. I specialise in the treatment of trauma, PTSD, anxiety, stress and burnout, ADHD, and addictions. My approach is trauma-informed, attachment-focused, and grounded in current research.
I draw on evidence-based therapies including Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR), Schema Therapy, Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Existential Therapy, Interpersonal Psychotherapy (IPT), and Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT). Together, we tailor therapy to your individual needs, goals, and circumstances. My aim is to help you understand and change limiting beliefs, and self-defeating behaviours so you can feel more balanced and fulfilled in your daily life.
For those seeking focused and accelerated support, I also offer EMDR Intensives, including a six-day format. This can be particularly helpful if you have a busy schedule, are significantly impacted by a specific issue, have an upcoming event causing distress, or have a clear therapeutic goal that you would like to address in a concentrated way.

Additional information
Most of my clients self-pay.
My services can also be covered by a number of leading health insurance providers.
I also offer 6-day EMDR intensive packages, designed to help people reach their goals over a condensed period of time. The intensive format consists of eleven 60-minute sessions, rather than the standard 50 minute therapy hour, which are closely spaced together, saving you both time and money compared to open-ended weekly therapy. There is also an additional 1/2 hour follow-up session, usually scheduled a week or two after completion.
