My Approach

In my work as a therapist, the focus is on providing a confidential, non-judgemental, and compassionate space where you can share what is troubling you, whether it be early life experiences or something that is happening in the present. Sometimes it is difficult to identify what is causing distress or disillusionment, but together we can explore your underlying feelings and think about them in the context of how adverse childhood experiences can often unconsciously influence adult behaviour and ways of thinking.

My approach is informed by psychoanalytic thinking, which explores how unconscious processes and our earliest relationships continue to shape our emotional lives, our relationships, and our sense of ourselves. By developing a deeper understanding of these patterns, psychotherapy can create the possibility for meaningful and lasting change.

About Me

I am a qualified and registered psychodynamic psychotherapist and along with a colleague we set up the Lighthouse Psychotherapy Practice. Our ethos is to provide affordable and accessible therapy in person and remotely in the Epsom and Banstead area of Surrey. After a brief telephone conversation there is an initial session where we can explore the reasons why you are seeking therapy. Subsequent sessions are then held weekly or twice weekly, depending on the intensity required, and on an open ended basis. I have experience in working with anxiety and depression, bereavement and loss, relationship issues, trauma and various other difficulties.
