About me
I’m Eszter, a London-based Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapist. I am fully accredited in Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) by the British Association for Behavioural and Cognitive Psychotherapies (BABCP). I work in the NHS part-time offering talking therapies, in addition to running my private practice.
I offer individual Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, alongside group Compassion Focused therapy.
Individual therapy
I specialise in working with individuals struggling with anxiety disorders, depression, and low self-esteem. By focusing on increasing self-awareness, identifying triggers, and understanding behaviours that may be maintaining distress, ultimately fostering lasting change that extends beyond therapy.
Group Compassion Focused Therapy
- Weekly 2-hour group sessions for 12 weeks
Aimed at individuals who are prone to self-criticism thoughts and feelings of shame. It will help you develop a kinder and more accepting approach to yourself, others, and life itself.
This group is based upon an evolutionary and bio-psycho-social informed approach to compassion, which now forms the basis of the CFT approach.
Training, qualifications & experience
My academic background includes a BSc in Psychology and an MSc in Clinical and Health Psychology. In addition to CBT, I have undertaken further training in Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT) and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which I integrate into my work to offer a well-rounded, evidence-based approach.
Member organisations

Further information
I'm a warm and compassionate therapist who offers a safe, supportive space to explore anxiety, low self-esteem, depression, and trauma, particularly where self-criticism and shame are present.
My approach is collaborative and tailored to you. Together, we’ll explore patterns, build self-awareness, and develop tools to help you move forward with more confidence and compassion.
I often draw on Compassion-Focused Therapy (CFT) to support you in creating a kinder relationship with yourself and navigating life’s challenges with greater emotional resilience.
Therapy with me is about more than symptom relief, it’s about lasting, meaningful change.
