About me and my therapy practice
I am a qualified psychosexual therapist, experienced Individual and Couple Psychodynamic Counsellor & Psychotherapist. I trained at Tavistock Relationships, an internationally renowned charity for advanced practice, training and research to support couples, individuals and families.
I offer Zoom sessions and face-to-face sessions at Finchley Central Practice.
I understand that it might be hard to seek help and share thoughts and feelings about personal problems, sexual issues and intimacy. We might fear being judged or misunderstood. Therefore, I offer my service in a non-judgmental, friendly, confidential and containing space.
Also, I have worked with diversity in terms of cultural, gender, and sexual differences.
Feel free to contact me for a chat if you need more information.
