Counselling in North London, London
Maybe you feel as though you are negotiating between intersecting parts of yourself such as your mind, body, heart and soul and you’re finding it difficult to find a balance that feels sincere to you. Perhaps this back and forth is affecting how you behave with your family, friends or partner and you’re finding it difficult to cope. You want to live a life where you can integrate more aspects of yourself and feel more whole, to hear and trust yourself, without fear of feeling shame, feeling seen or even feeling truly known by those who matter most to you.

To introduce myself – I’m a counsellor specialising in working with ADHD clients and couples, and the challenges which come with navigating diagnosis whether that be the emotional impact, the difficulty in reframing your past, present and future, and the difficult and often drawn-out experience of waiting for assessment, assessment itself, diagnosis, treatment, and medication. I am diagnosed combined-type ADHD and found it enormously beneficial to my work.

I am a psychotherapist based in Stoke Newington, on the border of Dalston. I offer a private, strictly confidential and non-judgemental service. In my practice, I treat established conditions, such as anxiety and depression. I also work with less defined relational issues (tendencies that prevent connection and intimacy) and repetitive destructive behaviours

The people I work with suffer from anxiety and depressive disorders. They often experience their negative thoughts as very adhesive and they engage in styles of repetitive negative thinking like worry and rumination that they find hard to control. Often they have reduced their activities or avoided situations to prevent triggering their difficult experiences. They want to gain a better understanding of the nature of their problems and why they persist and receive clear guidance on how to target these factors with focused, evidence-based therapy.

For the past 20 years I have been developing my skills as a psychological therapist, working with people of all ages and backgrounds. I've worked in inpatient, out-patient, community and hospital settings. I work with children, parents, families, adults and couples. I have extensive experience with mental and physical health issues and I believe they are deeply connected. I am passionate about delivering good therapy, tailored to each persons unique life and needs. Clinical psychologists, at their best, are 'science-helpers', turning science into a helping art.

Thanks for checking my profile. You may be here looking for support. Perhaps you are experiencing pain or challenges, and the usual ways of distracting yourself are no longer working. You may not have anyone to talk to. Or, maybe, you are feeling stuck and would like to understand why you seem to be repeating the same old unhelpful patterns, or struggling in your relationships. You are not alone. Feeling this way is normal and more common than you’d think. The good news is, there is a way out. I aim to support you not just to manage the issues that are currently causing you difficulties but also to explore the emotional root causes.

I'm a clinical psychologist offering individual therapy for adults. I appreciate how hard it can be to start working with a new therapist, and prioritise creating a trusting working relationship where difficulties can be discussed without shame or judgement. I continue to work in the NHS as a senior psychologist, and have several years of experience working with people across the lifespan facing a range of difficulties.

You might feel overwhelmed by life's complexities and struggle with patterns tied to early experiences and family dynamics, yet you feel these alone don’t fully capture your current challenges. You seek a therapeutic relationship that explores the effect onto you of both personal experiences and socio-political dynamics; one that addresses issues like anxiety, depression, and self-esteem, while examining the systemic forces limiting your potential.

I know how hard it can be to reach out and take the first step when you need help. A problem can become so large that it takes over most of your life. It can be something from the past that refuses to stay buried or a current situation that you can't move beyond. Whether it's depression, anxiety, bereavement, stress or a relationship breaking down, you can't see a way out and you feel overwhelmed. Sometimes it's different, you've reached a point in your life when you know that something needs to change, or maybe change is being forced on you. You feel trapped or stuck. You want to live life, but don't know how.
