Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist

About me

In order to facilitate the lasting change you may be looking for, my work is dedicated to a deeper awareness of the self and of the stories that shape us that cause difficulties. I am committed to respecting the complexities of emotional life, and those parts that often go unspoken and unseen. 

It's about creating a trustworthy, non-judgmental space, where we can explore the hidden material shaping your feelings and relationships. Whether you're grappling with depression, anxiety, trauma, loss, or long-standing struggles around dependency or identity, we work together to uncover patterns that might be holding you back or be disruptive. You may or may not be in acute crises, but feel disconnected from others, from yourself, of from a sense of meaning or purpose.

Often our unresolved material is buried deep in the unconscious. It's about making sense of what's repressed or forgotten. The analysis of dreams and other unconscious phenomena are important elements of this work. 

I support you to face what's difficult at your own pace, helping you to reclaim agency over your inner world, fostering an authentic self-awareness, and better relationships with yourself and others. Ours will be a high-stakes and collaborative relationship. One that is committed not just to understanding, but to meaningful and lasting change.

Training, qualifications & experience

I trained at the Guild of Psychotherapists, a pluralist school of psychoanalytic psychotherapy. Although I draw on a broad range of theoretical thinking and approaches, the work emerges out of the unique encounter between us. I strive to provide a tailored and flexible response to your unique internal situation. 

I began my clinical practice at the Rock Clinic in Brighton & Hove, at the Guild Clinic in Southwark and with  psychiatric in-patients in the NHS. I continue to support the Guild Clinic as a member of the clinic committee.
