About me and my therapy practice

I provide counselling and psychotherapy sessions for adults in North London, covering areas in and around Enfield, Southgate and Barnet. My work as a therapist began following a career in the wellness industry. Through my experience working one-on-one with individuals in hands-on therapy treatments and business/personal development capacities, I gained valuable insights into the intricate relationship between the mind and body, especially in response to stress, trauma, and repressed emotions. This knowledge significantly informs my therapy practice, and I have a particular interest in working with individuals who have been deeply affected by early life traumas such as the loss of a loved one, sexual abuse, emotional abuse, and physical abuse.

I also have an interest in working with parents of childhood trauma who are struggling in their relationships with their children due to the parental love and care they lacked growing up. Repressed trauma affects whole families for generations occupying considerable space in our psychological well-being and manifesting as mental and emotional pain. Although there are many ways of managing stress and trauma, therapy plays a crucial role in addressing these challenges, helping you understand how your trauma has affected you and finding healthier ways to cope.


Practice description

My work is predominantly open-ended weekly sessions lasting for fifty minutes. I also offer short-term work for a specific issue. I work predominantly face-to-face, in person or online. My personal and professional background is rooted in diversity, enabling me to work inclusively with people from various circumstances. 

Understanding yourself from an internal perspective is essential to finding contentment in today's world. Therapy with me offers a setting which provides a non-judgmental, confidential and therapeutic space to help you work through your problems and create an emotional pathway to make sense and meaning of your situation. 

Whether you know the root of your concerns or hope to discover them, talking therapy can help you gain the vital understanding and clarification you need to move forward.




My first session

Our initial meeting will be for an assessment where we can discuss your concerns and assess if counselling or psychotherapy is the appropriate route for you. This time also allows you to experience what it is like to be with me and helping you decide if I am the right therapist for you to work with. In addition, I offer a free 15-minute telephone consultation to establish an overview of your circumstances.
