About me and my therapy practice
Hello, I'm a fully trained counselling psychotherapist and I offer private individual and relationship therapy on an ongoing or short-term basis.
I am trained in the Psychodynamic method, Psychosexual CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy), Addictions Counselling and EMDR. I use an integration of these ideas to help you best.
It can be difficult to find a space to reflect and discuss the things that are on your mind or are difficult to think about. I offer a secure, non-judgemental, confidential environment, where together we can find that space for you.
I am very patient and understand that taking that first step towards counselling, and beginning to make changes, can be very difficult, and I'll do my very best to support you.
The therapy room is based in Hackney Central and there are several buses that stop nearby (106, 254, 276, 277, 38 55 and W15). Nearest Train - Overground Hackney Central.
