About me
As a psychoanalytic psychotherapist, I will work with you to think about what is troubling you with the aim of understanding your situation, thereby enabling you to move to a happier life. I believe that by looking at past events we can make sense of what is happening in the here and now. How we are brought up, our childhood relationships with parents/caregivers, how we have dealt with losses all goes towards making the person we are today. Sometimes we keep going in a pattern of relating to people based on past experiences and feelings which is not helpful to us now and stands in the way of moving forward.
If you decide to contact me we will have a short conversation either by email or on the phone about your current circumstances and issues and, if you are agreeable, make an appointment to meet for an introductory session. This session will allow us to think about what's going on and whether we both consider that we can work together. If we decide that we want to proceed with a course of therapy then you will be offered what is usually a minimum of a weekly 50-minute session which will take place at the same location, on the same day and at the same time each week. Evening and weekend appointments are available. The duration of the treatment will vary according to what is needed and can be short or long term.
I am based at two fully accessible locations, in Uxbridge and the City of London. The Uxbridge location is a five minute walk from Uxbridge Tube Station while the City office is five minutes walk from Bank Tube.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am fully qualified, having a MSc in Psychodynamic Counselling and Psychotherapy from Birkbeck College, University of London, and am also a Member of the British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC) and a Registered Member of the British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP).
I have considerable experience in the NHS as a psychoanalytic psychotherapist, treating patients with depression, anxiety and personality disorders, among other conditions.
In addition, I have worked for Brent, Wandsworth & Westminster Mind in a number of roles working alongside people with all kinds of mental health issues.

Further information
I am aware that taking the first step in seeking help is hard. Please contact me for a free-of-charge, no obligation conversation about your situation, particularly if you are not sure whether talking therapy is the right path for you. Hopefully, I will be able to answer any questions you have and you will then be in a position to make a decision on whether you want to go ahead and book an appointment.
