About me

About Me

have many years' experience working therapeutically with adults across different stages of life, both within the NHS and in private practice. Throughout my career, I have worked across a range of NHS mental health services, supporting people through both short-term and longer-term difficulties. I have also worked within educational settings, providing psychotherapy to university students and staff.

Alongside my private practice, I currently work within an NHS mental health service. My private practice is based in East and Central London, with sessions also available online, allowing me to work with clients more flexibly.

Before training as a psychotherapist, I spent several years working in the creative industries, including fine art, graphic design and advertising, alongside leadership roles across a range of sectors. These experiences continue to shape my therapeutic work and give me a particular understanding of the pressures that can arise in professional life.

I work with people experiencing work-related stress, performance anxiety, workplace conflict, burnout and difficulties maintaining a healthy work-life balance. For many of us, our work is closely connected to our identity, sense of purpose and self-worth, and difficulties in this area can have a significant impact on our emotional wellbeing. I bring both professional and personal understanding to exploring these challenges, while remaining grounded in a psychological and therapeutic framework.

I have also been recognised for my work in promoting diversity, inclusion and belonging, receiving an award within my NHS Trust and being shortlisted for the national NHS70 Parliamentary Awards. These experiences reflect something that is central to how I work: creating a warm, respectful and inclusive therapeutic space where people feel heard, understood and able to be themselves.

Areas of interest

I am an experienced psychotherapist with many years of working with adults in both NHS mental health services and private practice.

My approach is grounded in evidence-based therapies, tailored to each client. I draw from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT) to explore unhelpful thoughts and behaviours; Psychodynamic Psychotherapy to address past experiences affecting the present; and Dynamic Interpersonal Therapy (DIT) to work through relationship difficulties.

I also bring many years of management experience in both Canada and the UK, which informs my work with clients experiencing workplace stress, performance anxiety, conflict, burnout, career transitions, and challenges around work-life balance.

I understand that difficulties at work can often extend beyond the workplace, affecting our relationships, confidence, identity, and overall wellbeing. I offer a safe, supportive and non-judgemental space to explore your experiences, work towards meaningful and lasting changes.
