My Approach

I am an integrative psychotherapist, which means that I draw on a range of traditional and contemporary therapeutic approaches to find a way of working that suits you. I see my role as supporting you to deepen your understanding of yourself and the challenges you are experiencing, and to discover new perspectives and ways of managing.

This could involve exploring how your past experiences or relational patterns are playing out in your life now; looking at how we can ground and regulate your body; or using part work to make sense of your reactions and experimenting with new ways of responding.

My practice is trauma-informed. I follow the framework of safety and stabilisation before any processing of traumatic experiences, and I will guide you through this process at a pace that feels right for you.

How we work together depends on you. Our therapy will be unique to you and will be guided by what is most beneficial for your therapeutic journey. Therapy sessions with me will be on a weekly basis. This ensures that our work is at the required intensity to be effective.

About Me

I am a qualified psychotherapist having trained for 5 years at a leading institution in London to Masters level.

My experience means that I have a wide range of skills and knowledge to draw upon and use in our work together.

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.

My work with anxiety is informed by a strong understabding of how anxiety develops and the way it can effect our thinking, emotions, physical wellbeing and relationships. I recognise that anxiety is not simpply worrying too much; it can be rooted in earlier experiences, patterns of relating and deeply held beleif about ourselves and the world. I have experience working with generalised anxiety, panic, health anxiety, OCD, intrusive thoughts and the effects of chronic stress. My approach is to both support you to manage the symptoms of anxiety and to explore what lies beneath the anxiety, understanding the purpose it may serve and developing greater freedom in how you respond to difficult thoughts and feelings in the future.
I offer an LGBTQ+ affirmative approach, recognising the importance of sexuality, gender and identitu in shaping our experiences of ourselves and the world. I work with people exploring thair sexual orientation or gender identity, as well as those navigating the challenges of coming out, relationships, belonging and acceptance. I understand how experiences of stigma, discrimintaion, rejection and minority can affect mental health and our sense of self. My approach is open, respectful and non-judgemental, prividing space to explore identity, relationships and personal experiences without assumptions about who you are or how you should be.
My work includes specialist experience in NHS trauma services, alongside more than 15 years experience of therapeutic experience. I have a strong understabding of how trauma, particularly complex and developmental trauma, can shape our sense of self, relationships and ways of responding to the world. I recognise that the effect of unprocessed trauma can negatively effect our lives with hypervigilence, dissociation, difficulties with emotional reglation and deeply held beleifs about ourselves and others. My approach takes account of the relationship between past and present difficutlies, with an emphais on safety, understanding and working at a pace that feels manageable.
