About me

I am a Psychodynamic Counsellor registered with the British Psychoanalytic Council and work in private practice in London N1.

In working with me, my hope is for clients to gain a deeper understanding of current difficulties within a relational context, in consideration of developmental and environmental factors; to process difficult feelings and build on the capacity for life-affirming experience: Ultimately, to re-discover a sense of hope and potential within the self and in relationship with others, in the present and regarding the future.
