About me

I offer a warm and engaging approach to exploring your thoughts, feelings, experiences and relationships with the aim of understanding yourself better. We will work to find out what you need to live a more fulfilling life.  I am a multi-cultural, integrative and holistic psychotherapist. My approach combines psychodynamic, humanistic, existentialism and body psychotherapy. This includes raising awareness of your thoughts, feelings, behaviour and experiences with compassion. We will explore your relationship with yourself and with others and discover your needs, choices and inner resources. My aim is for you to understand yourself better as a whole and to feel empowered to live the life that you want.  We can work together by talking and I also work creatively and intuitively so I welcome creative expressions, such as drawing, writing or working with the imagination and intuition. I have experience working with a wide range of clients in EAPs and academic institutions and in private practice for 10 years. I have a special interest in working with diversity/difference, cultural displacement and identity. I often work with clients who feel multi-cultural tensions in their life or feel different in some way. I also work creatively with complex trauma. My skill is in accurately assessing what keeps you stuck and what you need as a unique individual to grow. I use my clinical experience and intuition to guide you. I'm currently working online only. I offer both short term and long term therapy. I am a BACP registered member and adhere to their code of ethics. If you feel you want a confidential space to explore difficult aspects of your life or need support from an objective perspective, therapy could be a great place to start. Contact me if you're interested in how I can support you and we can schedule an initial call to decide if we would like to work together.
