I am a UKCP accredited psychotherapist with many years of experience working with individuals, couples and families who want to make sense of their lives, relationships and choices.

My approach is grounded in thoughtful conversation, creating a space where you can slow down, reflect, and look honestly at what is happening in your life: what is working, what is not, and what you may want to change.

My work is primarily shaped by an existential approach to psychotherapy. In simple terms, this means looking not only at symptoms or problems, but how you personally experiencing them. We will explore what matters to you, what gives your life meaning, the choices and limitations you face, and how you relate to yourself, other people and the world around you.

Sometimes, people understandably come to therapy looking for a “quick fix”. Where helpful, I draw on practical approaches and techniques from Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), Mindfulness and Hypnotherapy. These can help with immediate difficulties, while our work can also explore what sits underneath them. My aim is for change to feel genuine, meaningful and more likely to last.

I trained at the School of Psychotherapy and Counselling at Regent’s College, London (2005–2010), gaining a Master’s in Integrative Psychotherapy and an Advanced Diploma in Existential Psychotherapy.

My other qualifications include Certified NLP Coach and Cognitive Hypnotherapist (Quest Institute, London), as well as accreditation as a Psychologically Informed Mediator (M&D, Jesus College, Oxford).

Alongside my psychotherapy practice, I have worked for many years in corporate technology across the finance, media and e-commerce sectors, and I continue to coach leaders and teams in this field. This business and executive coaching experience informs my work with professionals, particularly around stress, career choices, leadership, performance and organisational culture.

I have also worked extensively in the area of diversity and inclusion in the workplace and am a published author on racial and ethnic identity.

How I can help

Support during difficult times
You may be dealing with anxiety, loss, relationship difficulties, work pressures or simply a sense that something in your life needs to change. I offer a steady and compassionate space to understand what you are going through and consider what it means for how you want to live.

Couples counselling
Relationships can become stuck in painful and repetitive patterns. I help couples slow conversations down, communicate more openly and understand what sits underneath their conflicts. The aim is not to decide who is right or wrong, but to understand what is happening between you and find a more constructive way forward – whether that means rebuilding the relationship or separating with greater understanding and respect.

Coaching and personal development
You do not need to have a “problem” to benefit from this kind of work. Many people come because they want to understand themselves better or make changes in their lives. We might explore confidence, decision-making, career direction, creativity, relationships or leadership, always starting with who you are and the life you want to create.

Mediation
Conflict can become difficult to resolve when people feel unheard or stuck in their positions. I offer family and relationship mediation, workplace mediation and support with other disputes, providing an impartial space to understand different perspectives, have difficult conversations and work towards practical ways forward.

Mentoring for teenagers
Adolescence can bring significant pressures as well as questions about identity, relationships, education and the future. I provide teenagers with a supportive space to think openly about what they are experiencing, develop resilience and build a clearer sense of themselves. Where appropriate, I can also work with parents to help them understand and respond to the challenges their teenager is facing.
