Further information
I work in a relational, safe and compassionate way, bringing my insight and warm personality into the therapeutic space.
I've completed a number of trainings and am qualified to work with adults, couples and young people from either Aashna in North Finchley or from my bright garden consulting room in NW11.
I find that my training as a child and adolescent psychotherapist has deepened my work with adults by exposing me to a wide range of creative techniques such as art and sand therapy. This training is also helpful when talking to adults about issues that can be linked back to their own childhood and also useful in supporting parents with the everyday challenges of parenting. Past patterns, particularly attachment styles, forms the basis of Imago relationship therapy.
