moment to moment, but in true consciousness
of our existence, then our greatest need
and most difficult achievement is to
find meaning in our lives”
About Me
I’m a qualified psychotherapist who specializes in psychodynamic counselling and cognitive behavioural therapy. As well as practicing open-ended counseling, I also have expertise in brief focused work.
My practice is in North West London within the Queens Park area, NW6. I work with individual adults and adolescents for an agreed time period, with the aim of enabling you to enhance your life and to live it more fully. Skype therapy is available on request.
Professional Qualifications
Ongoing study towards a MA in Couple Psychoanalytic Psychotherapy at Tavistock Relationships, University of East London.
BSc Honours in Psychodynamic Counselling and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy from Birkbeck University of London.
BACP Accredited Foundation degree in Psychodynamic Counselling and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy from Birkbeck University of London.
HE Certificate in Counselling Skills.
I am on a register accredited by the Professional Standards Authority, a programme monitored by the government and registered with the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) and abide by their ethical framework.
I can help
I am experienced in helping clients who have difficulties with depression, anxiety, loss, self-acceptance, stress, addiction, relationship issues, pre and post divorce issues, cancer and illness recovery, low self-esteem, perfectionism, stage of life difficulties, anger processing, trauma and abuse.
Areas of Experience
I have varied experience working for many years in the NHS delivering short-term, focused therapy. I have also worked as a psychotherapist at University College London in student counselling and have worked with substance abuse in a drugs and alcohol service. I have also worked as a volunteer at Samaritans helping people struggling to cope with day to day life.
Alongside my private practice work, I see couples in London, W1.
Personal approach
My training in both Psychodynamic and Cognitive Behaviour Therapy allows flexibility and the opportunity of choice in theoretical approach. I provide an entirely confidential, non-judgmental space to explore your innermost thoughts and feelings in a secure and caring environment. Carefully chosen colleagues supervise my work to ensure you get the best possible care, whilst maintaining your confidentiality.
Our work together will consist primarily of talking and where appropriate (for instance in CBT), I offer the use of creative tools.
re-shape them, draw different implications from them,
and engage in new trains of thought.”
