About me
Feeling overwhelmed or lost? I provide a safe and supportive space to explore life's challenges and discover your path to greater well-being. I am an experienced BACP registered psychodynamic psychotherapist, offering in-person and online therapy to adults in East London and beyond. Everyone has the capacity for growth and change. My approach is grounded in empathy and a deep respect for the individual's unique path in life.
At times, life can feel incredibly challenging. You might be experiencing anxiety, depression, or navigating significant life transitions such as bereavement, relationship difficulties, or job loss. Perhaps you simply feel a longing for deeper self-understanding and a more fulfilling life. Therapy can be a transformative experience, and I am here to guide you.
I offer a deeply attentive and non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts and feelings without fear. Together, we'll delve into the patterns that may be holding you back, empowering you to make lasting positive changes.
Getting Started With Psychotherapy
Beginning therapy can feel daunting, which is why I offer a free 20-minute phone consultation. This is an opportunity for us to connect, discuss your needs, and answer any questions you may have. Take the first step towards a more fulfilling life and contact me to organise your free no-obligation consultation today.
How I work
My approach is psychodynamic, which means we'll explore the connections between your current challenges and your past experiences. Sometimes, patterns from our past can influence how we feel and act today, even if we're not fully aware of it. Together, we'll gently uncover these patterns, helping you understand how they might be affecting your relationships, emotions, and overall well-being. Sometimes, there are hidden roots to our struggles. By exploring these roots, we can gain a deeper understanding of ourselves and make lasting changes.
I am experienced in working with a wide range of life issues including:
Anxiety
Depression
Relationship and family difficulties
Loss and Bereavement
Low self-esteem
ADHD

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
