Psychotherapy and counselling offer a space to reflect on your experiences, make sense of what’s shaped you, and think about how you want to move forward. It’s a place where your story can unfold at your pace, without judgment or pressure.

I offer longer-term, in-depth work for those who want to explore beneath the surface—whether you’re experiencing anxiety, depression, feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or unsure about how to navigate relationships or life changes. Together, we can begin to put words to what might feel confusing, painful, or hard to name.

This process often involves reconnecting with parts of yourself you may have lost touch with—examining patterns that keep repeating, rebuilding trust in yourself, setting boundaries, or making sense of emotions that feel too much or not enough. All aspects of your experience are welcome here: your fears, dreams, memories, and doubts.

As the relationship between us develops, it can become a space where meaning begins to emerge from what may have felt chaotic or heavy. Change often begins not with fixing, but with understanding—being truly heard, felt, and seen.

If you'd like, we can begin with a short phone call to get a sense of how it feels to speak together, and think about where the work might begin.

Therapy is most healing when you can express yourself freely, be playful and creative. You may arrive with anxiety, depression, relationship issues, we will work together to better understand better what how these terms are manifesting for you. The aim is to be curious about why things are the way they are and to think carefully about how they might be different. Committing to being here - showing up each week on time and engaged - even when it feels difficult is what can lead to work that will change your life.

Forming a relationship is an important part of the work. The therapy room provides a calm and supportive space in which problems of the past and present can be thought about together.

I have some availability for work in Clapham and Victoria/ Westminster, online or on the phone on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays. I offer a free short consultation phone call before our first session. Please get in touch if you'd like to see if we're a good fit.

Before our first session, we can speak on the phone so you can get a sense of what I'm like and ask me any questions you might have. I will also ask you some questions to get a general sense of what you would like from therapy and where you are in your life at the moment. This conversation is fifteen minutes and is free. If you would like to arrange speaking then please get in touch via email or text.

Our first session will be 50 minutes long, either in-person, online or on the phone. This is where the work will really begin. There will be space for you to lay out what is going on for you in greater detail. The pace and the content will be determined by you, the reasons you have come and how long you are planning to work with me for. At the end the first session you can go away and have a think about how it felt, if you decide not to continue with the work, I will not charge you.  

I have some availability for both long-term work starting in Clapham and Central London and online.

My practice is always developing. My work with each client forms part of this development. The acts of speaking and listening have the capacity to create deep and meaningful changes. I want to hear your story and help you make sense of it.

Before my training, I worked with plants. There is, I believe, a deep kinship between gardening and psychotherapy. Both require a certain sensitivity to the signals and needs of living things, a tolerance for doubt and trust that putting in work now may cultivate the future one desires. Gardens, like people, have a personality and a direction all of their own.

Learning is a cornerstone value in my practice. I am undertaking a further UKCP accredited MSc training. I also attend NSPA conferences, workshops and lectures. I am interested in the bridges between the fields of psychotherapy and neuroscience: how lots of new research is revealing truth in Freudian maps of the mind. I follow the BACP ethical guidelines in my work.

I am also interested in the intersection between psychedelics and psychotherapy as trials enter phase III. I am conducting qualitative research on the links between psychodynamic thought and methods for psychedelic integration therapy.  

Before our first session, we can speak on the phone so we can get a sense each other and ask any questions we might have. I often ask about what you would like from therapy, where you are in your life at the moment. This fifteen or twenty minute conversation is free. If you would like to arrange speaking then please get in touch via email or text.

After speaking, our first session will be a traditional 50 minutes. This is where the work will really begin. There will be space for you to lay out what is going on for you in greater detail. The pace and the content will be determined by you, the reasons you have come and how long you are planning to work with me for. At the end the first session we can speak set out the parameters of the work together going forward.  

Committing to a regular and consistent time and place for our sessions is an important part of the work. That being said, if you need to cancel, I always try to offer replacement sessions either in person or online, although this is sometimes not possible.

Therapy is often most healing when people can express themselves freely, be playful and creative. You may bring struggles defined in broad terms: anxiety, depression, relationship issues, we will form a singular relationship and will work together to better understand your mind. It helps to remain curious about yourself without being critical - curious about why things are the way they are and to take responsibility for what is within your control. Beyond that, committing to being here - showing up each week on time and engaged - even when it feels really hard makes such a difference and can lead to work that will change your life.

I offer a strong, real and trusting relationship. This is the most important part of my job. I work people for all kinds of reasons; depression, anxiety, relationship breakdown, self-esteem issues to name a few. The therapy room provides a calm and supportive space in which problems of the past and present can be thought about together.

I am available for sessions on Mondays. The room is between Belgravia and Westminster - a five minute walk from Victoria station.
