About me

I provide a safe, focused time and space where you'll listened to without judgment and can speak freely about whatever is troubling you. Talking things over with a professional, someone outside your family and social group, can offer you support and a fresh perspective on things, whether its something recent that has upset you or you've been feeling worried or unhappy for some time.

I think we all have far more emotional and psychological resources than we think we do and that the experience of feeling listened to and understood by someone else can help us tap into those inner strengths. I'll encourage you to pause and reflect, pay more attention to your experience and listen to yourself, discover and draw on your own resources and find your best way forward.

My experience

I was a Bereavement Counsellor in an NHS hospice for over 5 years and am particularly skilled and attuned to work in this field.  My experience includes working with those who've suffered traumatic bereavements such as a sudden death, a suicide, the death of a child.

I'm also experienced in working with people who bring a wide range of other issues to therapy, for example:

• Generalised anxiety disorder
• Loss
• Relationship difficulties
• Depression
• Family difficulties
• Low self-esteem
• Unresolved issues from the past
• Life transitions (retirement, divorce, redundancy, illness)
• student concerns (e.g. exam stress, adapting to university life)
• sexuality
• long term illness

I work long term with psychotherapy/counselling trainees from training institutions across London. I may be able to offer reduced rates for trainees on lower incomes (daytime appointments - limited availability).

Sessions are arranged weekly, at the same regular time. I offer long-term ongoing psychotherapy and also time-limited work which is usually meeting for 6-10 sessions, focussing on a particular concern.
