About Me

I am a qualified Systemic psychotherapist (also known as family therapist) who works with clients currently online. I have twenty-five years of working with children and families, within social care and therapeutic environments. I work with diverse issues and have extensive experience with dysfunctional relationships. I have experience of working diverse communities with complex needs within social care, private practice and/ or for NHS. I create a safe, non- judgemental environment for clients and help them through cycles of negative interaction to bring their relationship. The aim is to secure, more attached and less conflicted place where resources and strength can be recognised and built on.

Issues I work with:

  • Communication difficulties
  • Child and Adolescent mental health services (CAMHS).
  • Voluntary work with Individuals, children and families living with HIV
  • Separation, infidelity, divorce and co-parenting.
  • Young people with mental health issues.
  • Difficulties during adolescence, child behaviour difficulties.
  • Parenting children with challenging behaviour using Non Violence Resistance (NVR).
  • Domestic violence in families and / or male who experience domestic violence.


Working within these various environments embracing a number of roles, has been a significant contribution to the person and professional I am today. My training in (Systemic and Family Psychotherapy) enables me to provide, co –create a space in which we can together, explore and talk together about difficult issues and work towards sustainable change. The difference that makes the difference. As a systemic psychotherapist, I focus on relationships. I also work collaboratively, which means I see therapy as partnership in which we work together at overcoming difficulties and highlighting resources. I am a Black African woman who works with intersectionality and embraces cross –cultural work.
