About me
Feeling stuck or overwhelmed? You don't have to deal with anxiety, trauma, burnout, loss or major life changes on your own. I offer therapy online and in person, and aim to facilitate a welcoming and non-judgemental space that fosters learning, growth and greater fulfilment.
Training, qualifications & experience
I am a HCPC registered Clinical Psychologist trained at Doctoral level. I have worked for over a decade in NHS mental health services in London, with people of all ages and from a variety of backgrounds. I currently work as a Highly Specialist Clinical Psychologist, with a special interest in development across the life span, from adolescence and emerging adulthood, mid life through to older age. I have also worked as a Senior Therapist in a specialist trauma and bereavement service.
Issues I work with
You may be looking for support dealing with a specific issue such as trauma, bereavement, health conditions, caregiving responsibilities, workplace stress or burnout, relationship issues, or facing a difficult life transition such as relocation or migration, parenting, retirement, and so on.
You may also be seeking help for more general issues with anxiety, depression, lacking confidence, feeling stuck or unfulfilled, or wanting to explore questions around identity and direction. When life feels overwhelming and confusing, you don't have to navigate it alone.
How I work
I am trained to work integratively, drawing on evidence-based approaches such as CBT, psychodynamic and systemic therapies. When we meet I will work with you to understand your therapeutic goals, if and how we can work together.
For me therapy is a space to deepen our understanding of ourselves, the things that are bothering us, and our capacity for growth and development. I aim to facilitate an environment that feels safe enough to explore issues that can feel difficult to talk about, inviting you to talk about what is on your mind in a way that you would not usually elsewhere. My role is not only to pay attention to what is said, but also what is unsaid, avoided and yet unexplored. Let us see what we can discover, that is not already known to us.
Over time, you may find yourself developing deeper awareness, and sense of mastery over what once felt limiting, restricting or overwhelming. You may also leave feeling more in tune with your own unique 'rhythm'.
I offer both brief, time-limited therapy as well as longer-term, open-ended therapy for longstanding challenges or for those who are exploring where to begin. I offer sessions online and in person in West Hampstead, London (NW6).
