My Approach

I am an experienced psychotherapist based in Islington (N1). I offer a caring, collaborative, confidential space to help navigate life’s complexities—whether you are dealing with stress and anxiety, low mood, or a persistent sense of being stuck, lost, or disconnected from yourself and your relationships. My practice is rooted in genuine human connection, focusing on your lived experience with curiosity and respect, rather than a medicalized or one-size-fits-all approach.

You do not need a clear story to begin. Whether you are facing specific challenges or a vague sense that something is "off," I provide an informal and creative environment to figure out what matters to you at your own pace. I trust your inner sense of what needs attention, providing a space free from judgment or external agendas where you can explore what’s holding you back and how you want to move through your life, work and relationships.

Lasting change rarely comes from being told what to do or how to feel. It happens when you feel heard, understood and accepted. I am here to listen closely as your unique meanings emerge. By making room for the contradictory, the overwhelming, and the unspoken, we can make sense of your experience together—helping you to feel less alone with what you’re carrying, and reconnect with your innate capacity for self-trust and understanding. 

Over time, therapy can help unlock a renewed sense of clarity, feeling and creative action. Because beginning this process takes courage, I invite you to a free 50-minute exploratory session at my consulting rooms on Upper Street—a no-pressure opportunity to see if we are a good fit and to experience the environment I offer before deciding on your next steps.

About Me

I hold an MSc (with Distinction) and a Clinical Diploma in Contemporary Person-Centred Psychotherapy from the Metanoia Institute. I am a fully registered clinical member of the UK Council for Psychotherapy (UKCP) and follow their Code of Ethics and Professional Practice. I also attend regular clinical supervision and ongoing professional development to support me in offering safe, thoughtful, emotionally attuned and socially conscious therapy.

Since 2018, I’ve worked across a range of community-based services in London, supporting clients through a wide range of challenges—including bereavement and losses of all kinds, relationship difficulties, stress and anxiety, obsessive, intrusive or paranoid thoughts, compulsive behaviours, depression, loneliness, hearing voices, trauma, addiction, and health-related or career transitions. 

In my private practice, I work with a broad spectrum of experience—from those navigating deep distress to individuals who are already flourishing but wish to use therapy as a dedicated space for creative exploration and personal growth. 

Drawing on a previous career as an editor in London and Paris, my practice is grounded in curiosity, humility, and a deep respect for the power and limits of stories and language. My research on metaphor was published in the peer-reviewed journal Person-Centered & Experiential Psychotherapies in 2023, and I hold a particular interest in issues of identity, belonging, otherness, exile, and the way in which the social world impacts on the experience of living.
