About me
Are you feeling overwhelmed, stressed, anxious or depressed? Sometimes, life's challenges can start to feel like more than you can manage. You don't need to suffer in silence. A listening ear, warmth and empathy, together with someone who can guide you to unlock your inner strength is what you will find in your therapy. I have several years of experience working with anxiety, depression, addictions, bereavement, abuse and trauma. I am based in Hendon, North London close to bus stops and there is ample parking. Please do not hesitate to contact me to find out more.
What to expect from a fist session
This will be an opportunity to get to know each other and discuss what brings you to counselling. You can get an idea of how I work and see if you feel comfortable to work with me. I will do a brief assessment to get an idea of what we will work on. You may feel anxious to start counselling. It’s a big step and you may feel quite vulnerable, but the alternative is to feel stuck with no place to express yourself. It takes courage to open up about your feelings, but it will hopefully allow you to move forward, heal and live a happier and more fulfilling life.
How many sessions?
The number of sessions you would like to have depends on you. We normally review the work together in 6-week blocks. Some clients may feel ready to stop after only a few sessions, others may want to carry on for more long term therapy
Training, qualifications & experience

Member organisations
BACP is one of the UK’s leading professional bodies for counselling and psychotherapy with around 60,000 members. The Association has several different categories of membership, including Student Member, Individual Member, Registered Member MBACP, Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Accred) and Senior Registered Accredited Member MBACP (Snr Acccred). Registered and accredited members are listed on the BACP Register, which shows that they have demonstrated BACP’s recommended standards for training, proficiency and ethical practice. The BACP Register was the first register of psychological therapists to be accredited by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA). Accredited and senior accredited membership are voluntary categories for members who choose to undertake a rigorous application and assessment process to demonstrate additional standards around practice, training and supervision. Individual members will have completed an appropriate counselling or psychotherapy course and started to practise, but they won’t appear on the BACP Register until they've demonstrated that they meet the standards for registration. Student members are still in the process of completing their training. All members are bound by the BACP Ethical Framework and a Professional Conduct Procedure.
