About me

I am an experienced psychotherapist working with individuals privately and at The School of Life. I have also worked with women's groups in the NHS.

My style of therapy is integrative, which means I draw on a range of psychotherapy models to create a style that suits you. We can work on an open-ended basis or agree to a specific number of sessions.

I believe therapy is about more than looking at the past – it’s about building our self-awareness to give us healthier choices in the present and future. As a client, you have all the answers and resources within you – my role as a therapist is to help bring these to light.

My experience:

I am experienced at working with clients who have anxiety and depression, relationship issues including divorce, separation and trust difficulties, career challenges, loss & bereavement, anger management issues, childhood sexual abuse, domestic abuse, eating disorders, panic attacks, addiction (sex, love, food), suicidal thoughts and trauma.

I have worked with clients from a diverse range of age groups, cultures, religious beliefs and sexualities.

Published work:

I regularly contribute to Vitality magazine on subjects of mental health and wellbeing. I am currently conducting research on the role of the father and the effects of paternal absence following divorce or separation. I have also written for the e-journal Contemporary Psychotherapy.
