  • create or move  towards a new future
  • enable and facilitate individual growth
  • strengthen appropriate, emotionally healthy family relationships
  • encourage good mental health and emotional well-being.

I am a qualified Child and Adolescent Psychotherapist and a Couple Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist with over 20 years’ experience of work in the NHS, Voluntary Sector and in Private Practice. I have worked in a number of different NHS settings, such as  CAMHS , an in-patient child and family psychiatry unit for pre-adolescent children and a hospital paediatric liaison service. I also managed a Voluntary Sector Child and Family Consultation Service in North London for a number of years.

I currently work in Private Practice in North London seeing parents and couples. I am employed as a Visiting Clinician at Tavistock Relationships (TR) where I do assessments and supervise students. I am a member of the MA teaching staff there and  have been involved in long term work with couples as well as with the Parenting Together and Parents in Dispute Services.
