About me
There are times when we feel stuck in life but in my personal and professional experience there is always the capacity for change. I offer a safe and non-judgmental space to explore your thoughts and feelings so as to understand yourself better and move forward. Currently my practice is online only which many people find more convenient, accessible and flexible than face to face therapy. I have experience treating anxiety and depression, family, work and relationship struggles and issues around identity and sexuality. My career includes the provision of short term and open ended therapy and I have experience working in a variety of settings with a diverse range of people. I welcome anyone struggling with overwhelming feelings or difficult emotional situations who feel therapy might be helpful. A particular interest of mine, and area in which I have a lot of experience, is working with people with issues around relationships, pregnancy, IVF, miscarriage, parenting and post natal depression. It can feel daunting to approach a stranger to discuss personal matters. I believe that one of the most important elements in a successful therapy is a trusting relationship between therapist and client so it is important to find someone with whom you feel comfortable. As a psychodynamic psychotherapist, I consider that problems in the present have often originated in past experiences. Understanding our unconscious motivations and defenses can be an important step towards breaking unhelpful patterns of thinking and achieving changes in perception and relationships. I trained at the leading UK institution WPF Therapy and am a registered member of the BACP British Association for Counselling and Psychotherapy and FPC The Foundation for Psychotherapy and Counselling . I abide by the professional code of ethics set out by these bodies and work full time in private practice.
