About me

Psychosexual & Relationship Therapist | COSRT Registered | Integrative | Online & In-Person | Chiswick, West Hampstead, Kensington

I am a psychosexual and relationship therapist based in London, working with individuals and couples both online and in person.

My approach is integrative, drawing on humanistic and psychodynamic principles, attachment theory, mindfulness, and somatic awareness. I work relationally - the therapeutic relationship itself becomes a space where you can explore your patterns, feel genuinely heard, and discover new ways of relating to yourself and others. I understand how we can become stuck in cycles we did not consciously choose, and I help individuals and couples recognise those patterns and open up new possibilities for connection.

My psychosexual work supports individuals and couples navigating low or mismatched desire, pain during sex, erection and ejaculatory difficulties, orgasmic challenges, compulsive sexual behaviour, and sexual shame.

In my couples work, I support partners navigating disconnection, conflict, infidelity, and the gradual drift that can happen when intimacy fades. I help couples understand the patterns and cycles that keep them stuck - often rooted in early attachment - and find new ways of communicating, repairing, and reconnecting. I also work with varied relationship structures, including non-monogamous and polyamorous relationships.

Having lived across different countries and cultures, I bring genuine multicultural sensitivity to my practice. I am committed to creating an affirming, inclusive space for all genders, sexualities, relationship structures, and identities - including LGBTQIA+ clients and neurodivergent individuals and couples. I also recognise how professional demands, life transitions, parenthood, and bodily changes can shape our intimate lives.

I have experience across NHS services and the charity sector, and I am currently completing an Advanced Diploma in Relationship Psychotherapy. I see clients online and in person in London. Whatever brings you here, my aim is to offer you a space to start speaking honestly, about your desires, your body, and yourself, accompanied with compassion and genuine curiosity, at a pace that is right for you
