About me
I am a fully qualified and registered psychodynamic psychotherapist with over ten years’ experience supporting people with a range of emotional and relational difficulties. Alongside my private practice, I specialise in working with people with eating disorders in the NHS at the Maudsley Eating Disorder Service. I welcome people from all backgrounds and aim to provide an inclusive and supportive space.
I work with people experiencing anxiety, low mood, relationship difficulties, challenges at work, or struggles with self-care. You may feel stuck in patterns you want to understand and change, have a specific issue you’d like support with, or find it difficult to identify what you’re feeling and why.
My psychodynamic psychotherapy practice helps people develop a deeper understanding of themselves, their experiences, and their relationships. Together we explore how current thoughts, feelings, and behaviours may be shaped by past experiences and unconscious processes, with the aim of creating lasting change.
I provide an empathic, non-judgmental space where you can speak openly. Psychodynamic therapy is often a deeper, longer-term approach, so I typically work in an open-ended way.
I offer face-to-face psychotherapy in Marylebone, Central London, within walking distance of Oxford Circus, Baker Street, and Bond Street stations.
My work includes areas such as:
- Depression
- Anxiety or worry
- Self-criticism
- Low or changeable mood
- Obsessional disorders
- Trauma
- Personality disorders
- Health anxiety
- Social anxiety
- Stress
- Low self-esteem
- Low motivation
- Work issues
- Relationship issues
- Family issues
- Eating disorders and eating difficulties
- Attachment difficulties
- Difficult experiences in childhood and onwards
If you’re considering starting therapy, please feel free to get in touch by email or message. I will then usually suggest a brief, free telephone call where we can talk about what you’re looking for and practicalities such as timing and fees. If it feels like a good fit, we can arrange an in-person initial consultation.

Member organisations
school Registered / Accredited
Being registered/accredited with a professional body means an individual must have achieved a substantial level of training and experience approved by their member organisation.
The British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC) is a professional association, representing the profession of psychoanalytic psychotherapy.
The organisation is itself made up of fourteen member organisations and BPC accredits the trainings of its member organisations. An individual who qualifies from one of these trainings is then eligible for entry into the BPC's register.
BPC registrants are governed by a code of ethics, a policy of continuing professional development, a statement on confidentiality and a complaints procedure. The BPC is a Member Society of the European Federation for Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy in the Public Sector (EFPP). Accredited by the Professional Standards Authority.
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.
