My Approach

My practice incorporates attachment theory, neuroscience and psychoanalysis. I trained at the Institute for Arts in Therapy & Education so in addition to talking therapy, I am trained to work therapeutically with different art forms, which provide an alternative means of communication.

About Me

I am a UKCP registered Integrative Child Psychotherapist offering 1:1 psychotherapy for children and teenagers at my private practice in Wood Green/Alexandra Palace. My experience has taken me to numerous inner city primary and secondary schools and the NHS. In addition to private practice, I am based 2 days a week at a secondary school in Westminster. I specialise in running seminars at local schools for parents and teachers on managing behaviour and building resilience and self-esteem.

I work with

  • Children and young people
  • Families
  • Individuals

Special Interests

Like all UKCP registered psychotherapists and psychotherapeutic counsellors I can work with a wide range of issues, but here are some areas in which I have a special interest or additional experience.

I have much experience working with anxiety. It is an incredibly common referral reason and manifests in children/adolescents as separation anxiety, exam anxiety, social anxiety, phobias, sleep difficulties, somatising etc.
I am interested and experienced with working with the social/emotional experience of neurodiversity and welcome referrals for those with diagnosed or suspected ASD, ADHD, dyspraxia etc.
I am very interested in working with gender questioning and issues of gender/sexuality in children and adolescents and welcome referrals from this group.
I support parents so they can support their children or teenagers.
I believe in getting therapeutic information to parents and professionals working with children/young people. I offer training for school staff, social workers, midwives and other healthcare professionals.
