About me and my therapy practice
I am a qualified and insured Psychodynamic practitioner and a member of the British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy. I work with adults one on one either face to face in London and the South East or remotely via Zoom nationwide. I work with a range of issues including but not limited to: anxiety, depression, addiction, bereavement, loss, self harm, abuse, trauma, stress, relationships and issues in the workplace. I offer long term (open ended) and short term (12 sessions) Psychodynamic therapy on a weekly basis.
Anxiety, depression or neurosis can manifest in many different ways: difficulty sleeping, loss of appetite, lack of enjoyment in favoured activities, lessening attention span, loss or lack of identity, difficulty in clear thought or intrusive thoughts to name just a few. At times it's not always clear why we feel the way we do: perhaps you are feeling overwhelmed or are engaging in patterns of behaviour which are negatively affecting your life. Conversely you may be all too aware of events or relationships which have, or are affecting your mental wellbeing and wish to explore these in a supportive and nurturing environment. Psychodynamic therapy, at it's core, is the exploration of our past and how that affects our present: through speaking about our present and our past and through engaging with the emotions associated we hope to excise our past trauma, understand ourselves better and live a happier more fulfilling life. Starting any type of therapy can be daunting, especially if life and events are feeling overwhelming, no matter what has brought you here you will be treated with warmth, confidentiality and respect.
The content of our sessions is within your control, what we speak about will be decided by you. I do not give advice or guidance, I am there to explore, reflect and be with your emotions.

My first session
I work by having a few initial sessions, these form an opportunity for us to meet and discuss you, your past, your present and what has brought you into therapy. I tailor my work to the individual so these sessions have no set agenda, they form an opportunity for me to hear from you about your life so that I can get a picture of who you are. These sessions form an introduction to each other, me to who you are and you to how I work, once this is established, we will then formalise our continued work with a therapeutic agreement.
