Over the last 15 years I have been passionate about understanding and helping people change the many ways our earliest developmental and attachment experiences play out in our adult lives.

I specialise in in-depth one-to-one work and have a solid, confident and kind presence in the therapy room. I work from a trauma- and neurodiversity-informed perspective and have a special interest in the transmission of intergenerational trauma.

I also support clients in bereavement and loss, terminal illness, dying and death.

To provide my clients with an alternative to talking therapy, I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitisation and Reprocessing (EMDR). This treatment is recommended by NICE (National Institute for Health and Care Excellence) and increasingly used by the NHS to help people process traumatic memories.

Before building a private practice, I worked as a therapist within community, charity and NHS settings in London. Some of my roles involved co-facilitating an art therapy group in an inpatient mental health unit and delivering crisis support at a drop-in centre.

I ground my work and further my knowledge in ongoing supervision, professional networking and peer group meetings. As part of continued professional development, I have trained in systemic and body-based approaches such as Internal Family Systems (IFS) and systemic constellation work.

I’m inspired by the words of Irvin Yalom:

I feel blessed being a therapist: watching others open up to life is extraordinarily satisfying.
