About me
I am an experienced integrative therapist. This means I can draw on a number of different therapeutic modalities to tailor treatment to the individual needs of my clients. These include, CBT; Psychodynamic; Attachment; Solution-Focused; Transactional Analysis and Person-Centred theory. As a therapist, I offer warmth, sincerity and a non-judgmental regard. I am down-to-earth and like to work collaboratively with my clients. I have a humanistic approach that places my clients at the heart of my work and respects the uniqueness of each individual. My practice is also informed by psychodynamic and attachment theory which looks at how early development and experience, influences our relationships and our sense of self. I will also work in the here-and-now and address thoughts and feelings as they arise, noticing how past patterns may be playing out in the present. I will provide a warm and supportive environment where you can safely explore your thoughts and feelings. This allows you to gain a deeper understanding of yourself and the root causes of any challenges as well as identify areas that you would like to change and develop. I believe that by being better able to accept ourselves we can evolve in a more authentic and fulfilling way. In being able to let go of self-judgement and inner conflict, we open ourselves up to growth. “The curious paradox is that when I accept myself, just as I am, then I can change.” Carl Rogers. My face-to-face sessions take place in a comfortable, dedicated private practice space in Greenwich conveniently located between Cutty-sark and Greenwich DLR stations. Occasional online sessions will be offered when clients cannot get to me. On the first session we will normally consider what brought you to therapy. Some people come with clear issues they would like to work on. Others may just have a sense that something is not right and would like to explore this feeling. I will normally ask what you would like to get from therapy. This may include discussing any goals you would like to work towards. I am happy to provide long-term, short-term and time-limited therapy. Next Step: It is important that you feel comfortable and able to connect with your therapist, that is why I offer a free 20-min online/telephone session so that you have the opportunity to meet me, ask questions and see if we can work well together.
