About
For more than ten years, I have provided psychotherapy and counselling to adults and young adults from diverse cultural and professional backgrounds at my practice in Lee, South East London.
I have also served as a Psychodynamic Psychotherapist in secondary care at the East London NHS Foundation Trust (ELFT) in Hackney and at the WPF Therapy clinic near London Bridge, and collaborated with psychotherapy charities, including the former Inner City Centre and APEL in East London.
Earlier in my career, I worked in higher education, coordinating research, managing programmes, and supporting staff and student health and well-being.
I have a long-standing interest in arts, culture, and creativity, and I maintain an active art practice.
Training
I trained at WPF Therapy, qualifying as a Psychodynamic Psychotherapist in 2015 and as a Psychoanalytic Psychotherapist in 2021. My training draws on a range of psychoanalytic approaches, as well as insights from neuroscience, psychology, psychiatry, and infant observation.
I value ongoing professional and personal development and engage in a variety of courses, seminars, and workshops. I have undertaken substantial personal therapy, including individual psychoanalytic, integrative, creative, group, and somatic approaches.
