About me
I am a psychodynamic psychotherapist and I trained at The Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust. Psychodynamic Psychotherapy is an evidence-based therapy that can be very effective for a wide range of emotional and mental-health difficulties such as depression and anxiety. It can help make sense of emotional patterns that are painful, confusing, and have a negative impact on your sense of self and your relationships. It can provide immediate relief but the aim is to foster lasting change by expanding your self-insight, strengthening your emotional resilience, and engender a greater sense of authenticity.
I offer a reflective, collaborative, and confidential therapeutic space, and I work out of consulting rooms in Victoria and Denmark Hill.
Training, qualifications & experience
I have worked at the Wandsworth Complex Needs Service (NHS), and the Camden and Islington Psychodynamic Psychotherapy Service (NHS). I am a full member of The Tavistock Society of Psychotherapists and the British Psychoanalytic Council, and I adhere to their standards of conduct, practice and ethics.
I trained at the Tavistock and Portman NHS Foundation Trust with a speciality in Inter-cultural psychotherapy, and I have worked with people from a wide range of lived experiences. I work with individuals who might struggle with depression or anxiety, difficulties in relationships, or have lived through adverse and traumatic experiences in childhood or later in life.

Additional information
My fee for an initial consultation is £80 and it will last for 60 minutes. We would usually meet once more to discuss the best way forward. The consultation is a period for us to explore any questions you might have about psychotherapy and what you might desire from it, and for us to consider our suitability for one another, and discuss such matters as fees and frequency.
