About me and my therapy practice
I have delivered over 8500 hours of therapy, dealing with all kinds of people with many different issues.
I specialise in helping individuals of all ages and couples who may be suffering relationship difficulties, stress, anxiety, depression, all forms of addiction, (including alcohol, drugs, gambling, sex), as well as dealing with issues relating to early trauma.
I have worked here and abroad in several client-driven, professional settings - including as a partner in a major law firm. I know how people can begin to feel 'time poor' and that external demands are dominating their lives.
I especially know how the City works, the stresses there - it is a unique place. Clients often tell me they value the insights I can offer derived from my experiences.
I offer practical 'here and now' techniques to get relief from stress and anxiety, and use a psychodynamic approach to explore what else may be troubling you.
The sessions might be an agreed number and solutions-focused, or more open-ended. We work out together what is best for you.
Practice description
I have a comfortable, peaceful room in a ground floor flat on a quiet road in Shepherds Bush, right by Wendell Park. It's a ten minute walk from Stamford Brook tube or Turnham Green tube or five minutes from the bus stops on Uxbridge Road.
My first session
Our first session is an exploration of where you are now, what is bothering you, what has brought you here at this stage in your life.
The first session is about seeing if there is an affinity, the potential to make progress together. You will know almost straightaway if we can.
