About me

I am an experienced accredited psychotherapist and supervisor offering a safe, relational and supportive space for you to navigate the difficulties you are currently experiencing. Whether you are struggling with work stress, relationship issues, anxiety or low mood, together we will find a way through.

I work online and in person in East London, the City and Deal in Kent.

I am trained as an attachment based psychoanalytic psychotherapist meaning I share a relational space with you, working collaboratively to understand and tend to the wounds that have occurred in your past whilst making sense of what's going on for you now.

My extensive work and training in trauma allows me to provide a containing base for you to begin to heal from the things that have happened in your life. This can help unlock stuck patterns and painful feelings, leaving you free to live life in the present rather than being pulled into the pain of the past or pushed into the worries of the future. 

I use a lot of neuroscience informed practice in my approach and have trained in a number of well researched trauma treatments such as sensorimotor psychotherapy, somatic therapies and IFS. I integrate this into my work to provide the tools which support the regulation in your nervous system needed to feel safe enough to heal from psychological pain.

I work with a range of clients from lots of different backgrounds and am culturally sensitive and aware. I have particular expertise working within the LGBTQ+ community. I am GSRD affirmative and trained.  

I have an interest and experience working with neurodivergence including ADHD and Autism. 

Our work together can be short, medium or longer term depending on what you feel would be helpful for you at this time. We will work together once or twice a for 50 minutes in a safe and confidential environment at my practice room in Shoreditch or in Deal in Kent. I also offer online sessions.

Through our work, you will have the space to be truly heard as you get underneath what it is that’s brought you to therapy. We will explore what’s going on for you right now and think about what you want for the future whilst noticing the patterns of behaviour that you find yourself repeating yet want to change.

Through our work together my hope is that you begin to build an accepting and friendly relationship with yourself, which in turn will positively impact your relationships with others.

Member organisations

school Registered / Accredited

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.

BACP
British Association for Counselling & Psychotherapy (BACP)

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
