About me

I’m a psychosynthesis / integrative therapist, working privately in London Bridge and online, as well as providing therapy services to the NHS. I work flexibly and tailor my approach depending on the needs of the client. Essentially, I see my role as to help you come into a deeper and more authentic relationship with yourself, to support you to live and relate more fully in the world.  I have a deep respect for clients' own unique journey through life. I recognise that clients will often know best what it is they need, and I provide a compassionate, non-judgmental space for what needs to be expressed and felt. Allowing the space for feelings to be deeply felt and witnessed can be profoundly healing. People can tend to have recurring patterns that go back to childhood, ways they have learned to be in the world which can at times seem to limit them, rather than serve them. I have a particular interest in helping clients understand these patterns and where they may have resulted in a loss of connection with a more authentic sense of self; in doing so, this can help to restore the inherent wellbeing and value of our essential nature, which I believe is our birthright. As a culture, we tend to spend a lot of time 'in our heads'. My experience has taught me that meaningful change requires a deepening relationship and sensitivity towards our feelings, effectively bringing us more into our bodies. I’m influenced by various spiritual perspectives, such as Buddhism and Transpersonal Psychology, and will sometimes introduce practices where helpful, such as mindfulness, which can support clients to come into a more immediate relationship with their direct experience. Feel free to get in touch if you have any questions about how I work.
