Qualified therapist comfortable with difficult life stories and complex family dynamics. Therapy for all issues including bereavement, family breakdown, relationships, complex trauma, dissociation, and social anxiety.

Therapy with me is a space where you can bring uncomfortable, distressing or confusing issues. If you're troubled by obsessive thoughts or simply need to talk about your worries, we can explore these feelings together. Perhaps you hide parts of yourself for fear of being misunderstood, or you feel stuck and struggle to identify your emotions, therapy can be a welcoming space for you. Whether you've been told you are 'too much' or 'too sensitive,' or find yourself in unsatisfying or even abusive relationships, we can work together to address these issues.

• Bereavement and loss
  
• Family issues and Breakdown
  
• Childhood neglect and abuse
  
• Sexual assault & Domestic Violence
  
• Complex Trauma, Dissociation, Derealisation
  
• Post traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and Complex Trauma/ C-PTSD
  
• Social Anxiety
  
• Work related stress
  
• Adult diagnosed ADHD

I have an office in Bromley, a discreet comfortable private space or sessions can done over zoom video.

As a trained psychodynamic therapist, my approach involves delving into your inner world to uncover how past experiences, particularly from childhood, shape your current emotions and behaviours. It’s akin to putting together a jigsaw puzzle of your life, where we   look at how past experiences influence your   current behaviour and emotional state. We collaboratively explore these deep-seated patterns and unresolved conflicts, aiming to heal old wounds and foster conscious, fulfilling connections.

My work is also informed by attachment theory, we examine how early relationships influence your interactions and relationships today, working to untangle and refine these emotional blueprints for healthier connections. I have a special interest in in trauma and dissociation, my trauma-informed practice acknowledges the impact of your experiences, treating emotional responses as normal reactions to extraordinary events. Maybe you hide parts of you from others for fear you will be misunderstood. All parts of you are welcome to therapy!

It is my job to listen and support you whether you bring an issue located in the here and now or rooted in your past. 

The first session is a chance to meet each other and see if you feel we could work together, it is important that you feel safe and comfortable with your therapist. There will be time to ask any questions or concerns you may have.  You can then book ongoing sessions if you would like to.
