About me
I’m an experienced psychodynamic psychotherapist. My practice is a safe and welcoming space in Surbiton, where we can make sense of difficult feelings, whether they have been present for many years or have emerged more recently.
You might be considering therapy because you are struggling with anxiety, loneliness, trauma or low self-esteem. Perhaps you are feeling depressed, overwhelmed or stuck. Maybe you have questions about ADHD or autism. These could be longstanding worries, or they could be brought on by something that is happening now. Psychotherapy provides a safe space for thinking together about whatever has brought you here.
Psychodynamic psychotherapy offers an opportunity to develop a deeper understanding of yourself. By exploring not only what is troubling you now, but also the experiences and patterns that may be influencing your current difficulties, we can begin to make sense of longstanding struggles and create the possibility for meaningful change.
My consulting room is conveniently located next to Surbiton station.
Training, qualifications & experience
I hold an MA in Psychodynamic Theory and Practice from the University of Roehampton and a Postgraduate Diploma in Psychodynamic Theory and Practice from WPF Therapy.
I have many years experience working with a very wide range of issues and I am engaged in ongoing clinical and theoretical development, including regular continuing professional development.
