My Approach

My work is grounded in relational psychodynamic therapy. Together, we explore how earlier experiences and significant relationships have shaped your sense of self and your expectations of others. Many of the difficulties people bring to therapy reflect patterns that once helped them adapt, but now limit intimacy, confidence, or emotional ease.
In time-limited Dynamic Interpersonal Therapy, we identify a recurring relational pattern that may be contributing to current distress. We examine how this pattern operates in your life now and, at times, within the therapeutic relationship itself. By making these dynamics conscious, you gain more choice in how you respond.
For those who prefer open-ended therapy, we allow more space to explore your internal world and relational history at a deeper pace.
My approach is collaborative, reflective and grounded in careful listening. It is not about quick solutions or surface reassurance. Instead, it is about developing insight, strengthening emotional resilience, and fostering a more compassionate and confident relationship with yourself and others.

About Me

You may look as though you are coping well. You work hard, think deeply, and others may even rely on you. Yet privately you feel anxious, self-critical, stuck in repeating relationship patterns, or disconnected from parts of yourself.
I work with people who are outwardly high-functioning but inwardly unsettled. Often there is a sense of being capable yet unfulfilled, longing for closeness but struggling to sustain it, or carrying a quiet belief of not being quite enough. Therapy offers a space to understand where these patterns began and how they continue to shape your emotional life.
I am a UKCP-accredited psychotherapist and Dynamic Interpersonal Therapy practitioner, with experience in both NHS Talking Therapies and private practice. My clinical work includes supporting adults with depression, anxiety, relationship difficulties, low self-esteem, loss, and the longer-term effects of early relational experiences.
I hold an MSc in Psychology, a Postgraduate Diploma in High Intensity Psychotherapeutic Counselling (Dynamic Interpersonal Therapy) from the University of Roehampton and the Anna Freud Centre, and a Postgraduate Certificate in Counselling Psychology from City, University of London. I am also a Graduate Member of the British Psychological Society.
Clients often describe our work as thoughtful and steady, with enough structure to feel containing and enough depth to feel meaningful.
