About me
ABOUT ME
I'm an integrative psychotherapist and counsellor practising in Central London and Online. I work with clients facing problems such as anxiety, stress, and depression to help them heal and transform their lives.
I welcome clients from all walks of life to my practice, including professionals, students, and individuals with non-traditional lifestyles and careers. I work particularly well with creative individuals, deep thinkers, and people who feel othered or alienated by society.
Some clients come to therapy to work on specific problems, while others use psychotherapy for personal development and to work in-depth on themselves.
Therapy is a safe, confidential space to discuss your circumstances with a trained professional, which can be hard to speak about elsewhere. Sharing your history with someone is deeply personal and takes courage. This will be responded to with respect, compassion, and professionalism.
Common issues brought to therapy include depression, anxiety, self-esteem, relationship problems, destructive habits, life meaning and existential crises, betrayal, narcissistic abuse, mental and physical health diagnoses, and perfectionism.
MY PRACTICE
I use a depth psychology approach to get to the root cause of problems. Together, we will process experiences, emotions, relationships, and life patterns to gain awareness surrounding long-standing issues and make impactful changes. I help clients break free of outmoded ways of thinking and live with a renewed sense of purpose and authenticity that aligns with their true selves.
I trained in transpersonal, Jungian, humanistic, existential, and psychodynamic therapy models. This allows me to use my intuition and skillset to tailor therapy to each client's unique needs. I use traditional talking therapy methods and can draw on creative techniques, such as dream work, IFS, meditation, archetypal psychology, shadow work, and visualisations to empower and heal the disquieted mind, body and spirit. My practice is trauma-informed and considers the role of the nervous system and the importance of emotional regulation.
I am accustomed to working with clients from diverse backgrounds. Though many of my clients are young and middle-aged adults, my experience as a bereavement counsellor has given me much experience and confidence with male clients in the 60+ age bracket.

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 UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) is a leading professional body for the education, training and regulation of psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors. Its register is accredited by the government's Professional Standards Authority.
As part of its commitment to protect the public, it works to improve access to psychotherapy, to support and disseminate research, to improve standards and to respond effectively to complaints against its members.
UKCP standards cover the range of different psychotherapies. Registration is obtained by training or accrediting with one of its member organisations, or by holding a European Certificate in Psychotherapy. 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.
