ABOUT

My Practice

I am a UKCP-registered psychotherapist working in private practice in Farringdon, Central London.

I believe that psychotherapy is most valuable when it offers a space in which people can think freely about their experience, without pressure to arrive quickly at conclusions or solutions. Psychotherapy is about creating the conditions in which something new can be thought, understood or discovered through careful listening and conversation. In my experience, lasting change often begins not with certainty, but with curiosity.

Alongside my private practice, I work as an assessor at CCPL (Centre for Community Psychotherapy London), where I assess prospective clients seeking psychoanalytic and psychodynamic psychotherapy. I have also worked as an Honorary Psychodynamic Psychotherapist with the South London and Maudsley NHS Foundation Trust, and as a Senior Counsellor and Assessor at Highbury Counselling Centre. I am a member of the UKCP and a registered member of BACP.
