About me
I am an integrative psychotherapist and counsellor working with individuals and couples in West Hampstead and Golders Green, as well as offering walking therapy in Hampstead Heath. I also offer online therapy for those who prefer a remote or blended approach.
You may be experiencing anxiety that feels difficult to manage, grief that has changed your sense of yourself or the world, or the lasting impact of trauma. At times, these experiences can leave us feeling overwhelmed, disconnected or stuck in patterns that are difficult to understand or change. Therapy offers a space to slow down and explore what is happening with greater curiosity and compassion. By understanding how our experiences have shaped the ways we think, feel and respond, we can begin to develop new ways of coping and relating to ourselves and others.
As an integrative therapist, I draw on a range of therapeutic approaches, including mindfulness, adapting our work to your individual needs. Together, we can explore your thoughts, feelings, relationships and experiences, while developing a deeper understanding of yourself and what may be getting in the way of living in the way you would like.
I work with a wide range of concerns, including anxiety, depression, addiction, OCD, low self-esteem, trauma and PTSD, ASD and ADHD, relationship difficulties and life transitions. I also have a particular interest in childhood bereavement. Alongside my therapeutic practice, I facilitate groups for young people processing loss experienced in childhood, offering them a space to make sense of their experiences alongside others who understand the impact of loss.
I see therapy as a process of becoming more aware of ourselves with kindness rather than judgement. It is not about quickly fixing what is painful, but about creating the space to understand, process and gradually respond differently. Through this process, we may begin to loosen patterns that no longer serve us, reconnect with ourselves and find greater freedom and choice in how we live.
I am available Tuesday to Saturday. If you are considering therapy, I offer a free 15-minute Zoom consultation. This gives us an opportunity to talk about what brings you to therapy, answer any questions and get a sense of whether we might work well together.

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.
Accredited register membership
The Accredited Register Scheme was set up in 2013 by the Department of Health (DoH) as a way to recognise organisations that hold voluntary registers which meet certain standards. These standards are set by the Professional Standards Authority (PSA).
This therapist has indicated that they belong to an Accredited Register.
