​

Prior to embarking on my psychotherapy training, I was a corporate lawyer at a City law firm and am acutely aware of the stresses and strains that can go with that sort of career. ​

​

 As well as having worked extensively with anxiety and stress related issues, I am also experienced working with depression; loss; isolation; relationship difficulties; feelings of stuckness; loss of purpose; infertility (including those undergoing fertility treatment); low self-esteem and trauma.

 

As a solo-mother to two (including one autistic child), I often work with those considering becoming an SMBC/SPBC (solo mother/parent by choice) as well as with parents of children with additional needs who may be navigating the SEN system and I have a growing interest in working with neurodivergent adults. 

 

Whilst seeing a therapist with particular life experiences might help you feel more understood and avoid you having to explain the "background/system" to a therapist without these experiences, I always endeavour to put my personal experiences to one side so that I can be present to your unique experience​.​

 

I am experienced working on both a short-term and long-term basis. In addition to my private practice, I have previously volunteered as a psychotherapist for several years at a low-cost counselling service in North West London and at Edgware NHS Hospital as an honorary counsellor.
