Thursday evening

Friday 9am-1pm

I am a down-to-earth psychotherapist offering you a confidential space to tell your story. Originally from the North East, I have lived in London for over 13 years.  My former career was in commercial marketing in the tourism and entertainment sectors. I am based in Anerley next to Crystal Palace and Penge, south east London. 

I will support you in making sense of the struggles that you are facing in your life and relationships with your family, partner, colleagues, or friends. The way we think, feel and act as an adult is often a result of our childhood, our relationships, or the experiences that we have or lack. I will work together with you to help you understand how your past experiences or relationships continue to impact your thoughts, feelings and behaviours in the present. At times unexpected thoughts or feelings may surface, but these will help you to begin to understand your relational patterns and fears as your awareness increases.

Therapy with me will also examine and clarify your assumptions, values, beliefs and aspirations about yourself and the world you live in culturally and socially. Therapy can help develop self-awareness and promote a greater understanding of who you are. It is a process, and it can take time to work through things that are difficult. But in this process with me, you could begin to let go of what is holding you back, perhaps take a new direction in your life, and find a new meaning and way in life. 

Clients often come to me when they feel stuck and unable to move forward in their lives, when they find it hard to cope following the death of a loved one, or when they feel that they are not good enough.

I provide 50 minutes sessions either short-term (usually between 6 and 12 sessions) or on a long-term, open-ended basis. There will be opportunities throughout the therapy to explore how you think the therapy is going and  how long it continues. 

I work with and have a particular interest in areas such as bereavement, anxiety, depression, self-esteem, OCD, abuse, existential questions, trauma, redundancy, and relationship difficulties.

In the initial session, you’ll get a sense of how I work and whether I’m the right fit for you. We can discuss what it is that you are looking for from therapy.
