I am an experienced psychotherapist currently working from consulting rooms in Belgravia & Chelsea, London, and work with adult clients from varying backgrounds. In my previous career as a senior executive in newspaper and media organisations in the US and UK, I worked with highly creative individuals and business people alike. This specialist knowledge of the creative and business worlds informs my psychotherapy work as well as familiarity with mid-life/career transitioning, divorce/separation, drink/drug dependency, boarding school syndrome and the attendant depression, stress and anxiety this can evoke.

Offers:  Remote Therapy

I provide short-term solution-focused therapy and long-term psychotherapy. I have been working with a wide range of issues including panic attacks and anxiety, bereavement, stress, addictions, relationship difficulties, sexuality, depression and loss of meaning, for over 25 years. Drawing from cognitive behavioural therapy, humanistic/person centred, psychodynamic, brief solution-focused therapy and existential approaches, I adapt the theory to each individual client.  My aim is to clarify those aspects of your life that cause distress, confusion or anger and lead to feeling stuck, blocked, unfulfilled and desperate. Through exploration and clarification we can explore options and choices and come to terms with our issues.

Counselling, psychotherapy and coaching in Soho, London and online.

Therapy for stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and sexuality issues, substance use, health conditions and HIV.

Many of us experience low mood, stress or anxiety in our lives and the talking therapy that I offer provides a safe space to really help. Sometimes clients just can’t put a finger on what is troubling them or causing them to feel blocked – early stages of our work together would sensitively explore this and help to establish goals so that you can, over time, appreciate your progress.

I have specific Cognitive Behavioural Therapy training to help you if you are experiencing sleep problems, panic, phobias, and some forms of trauma and OCD.

I am a chartered Counselling Psychologist and EMDR therapist, registered with HCPC and accredited by the British Psychological Society. In my therapeutic practice I work predominantly with issues around relationships, intimacy, anxiety, depression, loneliness and isolation, self-esteem, body image and eating disorders, gender identity, and a more general unease around existence.

My therapeutic approach is existentially/phenomenologically based, meaning that in therapy, we will focus on your unique, personal experience and how you have come to find yourself where you are, and then examine the possibility that you are in a constant process of becoming, ever-changing, but always in relation.
