About me and my therapy practice
I am an integrative psychotherapist with experience in relational psychoanalysis. My aim is to help individuals understand the root causes of their difficulties to transform their lives in meaningful ways.
I work with clients on a wide range of issues, including: dealing with anxiety and/or depression, difficulties with pregnancy, postpartum depression, pregnancy loss, abuse (past and/or present), addiction, bereavement, and trauma, among other concerns. I appreciate how past experiences can impact present relationships and contribute to feelings of low mood, anxiety and disconnection.
I understand how hard it can be to take the first step to start therapy, but I also know how rewarding and liberating this process can be. I believe that we grow and develop in connection with others and that the crucible for change lies within the therapeutic relationship. To look at ourselves from another person’s perspective enables us to see ourselves in ways that we haven’t before. A new, compassionate perspective can be transformational.
Practice description
I completed my undergraduate studies at Oxford and Georgetown Universities and graduated with honours. I then received a Masters degree in Integrative Counselling and Psychotherapy from Regent’s University.
I gained experience working at Help Counselling, West London Centre for Counselling, City Pregnancy Counselling and Psychotherapy, and Addiction Therapy. I have also worked in an inpatient unit for men and women with acute mental disorders such as schizophrenia and psychotic and paranoid symptoms.
Further, my experience includes working internationally for over 20 years with executives navigating professional change and/or challenging work situations. In that capacity, I was quoted by international publications such as Fortune Magazine, the Wall Street Journal, the Los Angeles Times, among other publications. I recognises the demands of corporate life and the implications it can have on personal well-being.
My first session
I offer a free introductory consultation to discuss what the client is looking for and to explain how I work. These consultations take place over zoom, last approximately 30 minutes and are free of charge.
Before working with a client I share a "therapy agreement" which describes all my policies, including cancellation policy, data management, holidays, etc.
I am a flexible practitioner and can work with clients in-person or virtually, and in English or Spanish.
My session price is £110 and I see my clients weekly.
