Therapy 

In my practice, I provide a dedicated space where you can explore and better understand emotional or psychological challenges. This might include feelings, worries, conflicts, specific life experiences, relationship dynamics and their recurring patterns, and perhaps your dreams, hopes, and aspirations.

​​​​

Therapy can help you see things from a different perspective, be more present and emotionally connected, and gain a greater understanding of yourself over time. It can also help you discover a renewed sense of agency to make changes in your life and relationships.

Open-ended psychotherapy can support you in exploring both recent and long-term emotional or psychological challenges. This might include ongoing worries, troubling feelings, low mood, grief and loss, relationship issues, work stress, or relationship patterns often shaped by the past. 

​​

Fixed-term counselling can provide short-term support when facing a specific issue, such as a recent change. It can be particularly useful after more ordinary life transitions, such as leaving an old job or starting a new one, entering a relationship, or moving to a new location.

Who I work with

I see adults and young adults in person in SE12, and offer online sessions across the UK and internationally. Many people who come to my practice are thoughtful, creative, and some are more sensitive, and come from a wide range of backgrounds.

Most of my clients contact me directly. I accept referrals, but do not work with insurance companies, Employee Assistance Programmes (EAPs), or therapy subscription platforms.

At the moment, I do not offer therapy to trainees in clinical psychology, counselling, or psychotherapy. I do, however, work with qualified clinicians.

 

How I work

I offer open-ended psychodynamic psychotherapy once a week. If you are or become interested in more frequent sessions, I provide psychoanalytic psychotherapy up to three times a week. I also offer fixed-term counselling, anywhere between three and six months.

I aim to foster a respectful and collaborative relationship that encourages thoughtful reflection and allows new insights to emerge.

I listen carefully and aim to communicate thoughtfully to help you face and process the thoughts, feelings, and any other matters that brought you to therapy. 

​​​​​​​​​Sessions​

Each session lasts 50 minutes and happens at the same time each week.

Fees​​​

My fees begin at £70 per session. 

 

Initial Appointment​​​

If you would like to book an initial appointment, you can email me or use the contact form below. I usually reply within 24 hours during weekdays.​

​​​​​​​The first appointment gives us an opportunity to meet, talk about why you are seeking therapy, and see if working together feels right. 

We might meet more than once before deciding on the next steps. These first sessions let you experience my approach and help us both see what working together could be like.

Feel free to get in contact with me.
