About the Therapist

About the therapist:

Finding the courage to look at ourselves, our relationships and our patterns of behaviours is a milestone in itself. I know from personal experience how daunting but ultimately freeing engaging in therapy can be. Perhaps you have a sense that something doesn’t feel quite right, or fear there is something wrong with you. It may be that you keep finding yourself in unsatisfying relationships or struggle to express your true wants and needs from others. You might want to deepen your understanding of yourself by exploring your history and build confidence in your decision-making and coping skills.

I offer a safe, non-judgemental space to explore the thoughts, feelings and experiences that shape you and be met with compassion and understanding. I believe past relationships impact how we relate to ourselves and others in the present. By considering these we can increase our ability to live as our most authentic selves.

I’m an integrative therapist, meaning I combine techniques from different approaches including person-centred/humanistic, psychodynamic, cognitive behavioural and existential therapy. I will draw on what feels most supportive to your individual experience and tailor our work to your holistic needs. If this sounds like a good fit for you then do get in touch.

I offer therapy sessions in-person, on a comfy sofa in Brixton, or online via video. I'm available weekdays and some evenings. Please contact me for my current availability. I offer a free 15-minute intro call.

Experience and approach:

I have over 8 years experience supporting adults in community and inpatient psychiatric wards, then NHS Talking Therapies and the charity Mind's counselling services, including work as an LGBTQ therapist and as a practitioner trained to work with long term health conditions and neurodiversity. I take a trauma-informed approach to therapy, so we will start by exploring what has bought you to therapy now and what problems and symptoms you are experiencing. We might explore where these issues come from in the past and consider together how you might take control to stop these problems repeating. I will be lead by you in terms of where you want to get to and what change you want to see. I often work with clients who are struggling with anxiety and depression linked to their relationships with family, friends, partners, themselves. At the start of therapy we take a fresh look at these issues and visualise what a more satisfying life with more authentic relationships would look like. Most of my clients see a gradual improvement in their symptoms, self awareness and ability to cope.
