About me

I am an Integrative clinical psychotherapist and Arts therapist; working humanistically and relationally, in order to create a tailored therapeutic approach for each individual.

Offering a compassionate, confidential and non-judgmental therapeutic environment that can support the expression and integration of complex feelings, which leads towards greater awareness and healing. This allows me to support people with a wide range of issues.

My many years experience of working within a range of arts includes theatre, music and writing. Over the last 15 years my focus has been on facilitating the self-development of others through psychotherapy, creativity and mindfulness.

I run a private practice in North London as well as working part-time with the Cognitive Analytic Therapy team at Guy’s Hospital, with previous experience on the Acute wards at the Maudsley Psychiatric Hospital (South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust).
