About me
You're dreading Mondays, working through exhaustion or constantly fighting imposture syndrome. As a therapist who specialises in burnout and workplace stress, I can support you if corporate/work pressure is impacting your mental health, relationships and sleep. There may be many reasons why you are considering therapy. You could be experiencing anxiety, depression or your confidence levels have taken a knock. You might be having relationship challenges inside and outside the workplace, or your desire for perfection is driving you to achieve impossible standards. You're finding that recent events have made your usual coping mechanisms aren't working.
As a busy London Professional it might feel unsettling to talk about particular problems or anxieties that have never been spoken about before. Maybe you've tried to hide your anxiety or relationships issues however overtime, a problem left unaddressed can sometimes become increasingly challenging and start to spill out into different areas of your life. This is where talking to a therapist can help. In our sessions, there is no pressure to have everything figured out. We can look gently at the causes of your stress, understand how it's impacting your daily life and build boundaries that protect your well-being instead of getting stuck. Through working together, I can support you to tackle toxic work environments, explore career crossroads, and find a way forward.
What I offer
I offer on-going therapy sessions on a weekly basis at my Southfields practice in Wandsworth, South West London, SW18. I have a second practice location in Putney/Fulham, SW6. I also offer online counselling. I provide you with the space to talk freely and unedited. You can explore what you want from life both inside and outside of work and decide what you can and want to change.
Areas of focus include:
- Chronic workplace stress and exhaustion
- Navigating difficult or toxic corporate environments
- Self-doubt and pressure to perform
- Work-related anxiety, panic and sleep difficulties
My training is in Workplace/Occupational Psychology (MSc) and Transactional Analysis (TA) psychotherapy. In its simplest terms, TA is a talking therapy that was designed to promote personal growth and change. It looks at how people communicate and behave. It develops explanations as how we may continue to re-play childhood strategies in adult life, even when these produce results that can be self-defeating and painful. It looks at our relationships in the past and present, and how our relational style impacts on our wellbeing and the choices we make including where we work and the jobs we choose. Understanding and improving how we relate to others can create the conditions you need for growth and fulfilment.
I also include other psychological approaches in my practice depending upon what busy clients need to regain a sense of control.

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.
