About me and my therapy practice
I am an experienced psychodynamic counsellor/psychotherapist with a Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ-accredited master’s degree working with adults of all ages.
I provide a safe and confidential place for you to feel accepted, understood and able to freely explore the causes of your feelings and behaviours.
Having a psychodynamic approach, I will be mindful of how your past experiences may influence your current patterns of thinking, feeling and relating to others.
Alongside my private practice, I also work as an assessor for a north London counselling charity. I also have extensive experience of working as a therapist in charities and in the NHS
I am a registered member of the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê¾«×¼×ÊÁÏ and follow their ethical guidelines in my practice, and I am committed to my own continued professional development.
Practice description
My practice is in Finsbury Park (N4) where I currently see clients in person.
I offer weekly face to face sessions in a comfortable and confidential therapeutic space.
I work with individual adults of all ages.
I offer open-ended, long term and short term work.
Rather than offering my advice, we work together to bring a deeper understanding of who you are. I can support you in examining the unconscious and sometimes unhelpful choices that might be standing in your way and impeding constructive change and growth.
People come to psychotherapy for many different and varied reasons and I aim to bring a non-judgemental, respectful approach to each unique individual that I work with. It can be a challenging process but one that can also be hugely rewarding and have a positive impact on many areas of life.
Some examples of what can psychotherapy help with:
Anxiety
Depression
Feeling stressed or overwhelmed
Self-destructive behaviours
Social anxiety
Unhappy relationships
Lacking focus in life
Loss, for example a bereavement or relationship break-up
Work issues
Self-confidence and self-esteem
Loneliness
Feeling stuck
Issues with identity, such as ethnicity, race, religion, gender, sexual orientation, ability, age and socioeconomic status
Problems with eating, drinking or your feelings about your body
Difficulties with sex or sexuality
Providing a space to think and reflect
I work one-to-one with adults, offering weekly therapy on an open-ended, long-term or short-term basis.
I offer private face-to-face appointments in my comfortable therapy room in Finsbury Park. Alternatively, online sessions are available if preferred.

I will view our first session/s as a time for both of us to assess whether we are happy to continue our work together.
