Counselling in N16
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.

I’m a clinical psychologist offering private therapy alongside my role as a senior psychologist in the NHS. I draw on personal and professional experience to offer guidance within a warm, non-judgemental space. I like to work together with my client, exploring their needs and preferences and then offering ideas informed by a range of psychological models. The models I draw on most are Schema Therapy and third-wave CBT therapies such as ACT and CFT. Often our work involves uncovering and strengthening resources that people already have or getting in touch with lost values.

The type of therapy I offer is a place where you can express yourself without judgement. Each person often has their own unique key to what they need, and I am committed to really listening and finding what that might be for you. From my perspective as a therapist, although we can't change our past, having the right kinds of support can help us look forward and put us back in the driving seat. In our first session, I offer a warm, honest, and open conversation for you to freely express where you are and what you hope for. We can explore any questions you might have about the therapy process and get to know each other.

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.

Many of the issues we face in life can be hard to deal with alone. With help, thinking about who we are, what we want and what is wanted from us we can identify and address problematic areas in our relationships with ourselves, with others and with the world of work and love, overcoming obstacles and reducing our suffering. I offer a safe and secure space in which to articulate whatever may be playing on your mind. The way I practice is non-directive, meaning that you decide what you want to talk about and when so can explore what may be troubling you at your own pace, either in person in east London or remote.

You may be seeking therapy for greater self-understanding, symptom relief, or improved relationships. Whatever your goals, we will work collaboratively to bring your thoughts, feelings, and desires into conscious awareness to understand how they impact your relationships and the way you navigate the world. As a therapist, I have a warm, empathic, and direct style. I work primarily from a relational psychodynamic base and weave in CBT, DBT, mindfulness, and compassion-focused techniques to target symptoms, improve the mind-body connection, and enhance overall well-being.

My approach to therapy is grounded in authenticity, acceptance and creating a non-judgmental and warm space between us. I see therapy as a journey of exploration into your world, and am interested in how you feel physically, mentally and spiritually. No one understands your experiences of yourself and others better than you, and my role is to undertake that journey of exploration with you, putting the pieces back together in a way that makes sense and creates understanding. Through this exploration I aim to help you live authentically and understand what freedom and fulfilment looks like within the context of your life

Do you struggle with self-acceptance? Do you hide parts of yourself that you’re scared may be rejected by loved ones? Is it hard to share your vulnerability with those closest to you? We can all feel like this at times and it can be challenging to sort through these feelings alone. Deciding to seek help is a courageous choice to take and is an important first step in improving your relationship with yourself and others.

I have been a UKCP accredited psychotherapist since 2003 and over this time I have worked with all kinds of people bringing all kinds of issues. I'm endlessly fascinated by people's lives and how we can find ways to live creatively and wisely. Maybe you have a specific thing you want help with: anxiety, depression, relationship problems, grief ...? Or it may be that something less tangible prompts you to seek therapy. Whatever brings you, I draw on a wide range of therapeutic knowledge and skills. I trust that attentive listening also helps you to hear yourself more clearly and through this process you can find your next steps.

I am a Clinical Psychologist working with adults in private practice (www.atimeandspace.com) and children and families in NHS practice. I support people to navigate a broad range of problems such as low mood, anxiety, burnout and stress, bereavement, loss, life transitions, fertility issues, parenting challenges, the effects of traumatic experiences, living with health conditions and new diagnoses, difficulty making decisions or feeling without a sense of purpose in life. I support people to feel they are living in a way that fits with their values and to depart from ways of being that no longer suit them.

I'm a humanistic therapist based in North London and have experience of working with people who are suffering from a range of issues, including relationship problems, anxiety, depression, loneliness, low self-esteem, trauma and loss. My approach is integrative, which means I'm able to draw on different types of therapy techniques that suit your individual needs. It can be hard to know how to approach difficulties you may be having and even harder to talk to those closest to you. This is where therapy can be hugely beneficial and I offer a chance for reflection in a warm, non-judgemental and confidential environment.

Feeling anxious and finding it hard to get through the day? Have a sense of being "stuck" and difficulty in knowing what you really want? Perhaps you can't quite put your finger on what's not working for you at the moment, but you know things could be better. When you're in this situation, it can be useful to explore more difficult aspects of life with a qualified counsellor in a warm and non-judgmental setting.

Perhaps you’ve felt stuck for a while, or have been feeling that something isn’t right but can’t quite identify what that is. You may be anxious, depressed, have low self-esteem. Maybe you are struggling in relationships, or finding it difficult getting your needs met? You may have often felt that you don’t belong, or that you’re not supposed to be doing the work you do. Perhaps you’d like to feel less frustrated, angry or alone? You may be experiencing grief, or struggling with addiction, you might have low libido, or want to explore your sexuality. It might be a family or historic issue you’d like to make sense of. I can help.

We can all face difficulties in our lives and sometimes it’s helpful to talk things through in a safe, warm and accepting environment. Whether you are experiencing anxiety, depression, trauma, loss, relationship issues, life transitions or other challenges, we can work together to gain insight into the difficulties you are facing and your responses to them. Insight can facilitate change. When we are stuck in the past it robs us of the richness of the present moment and limits who we can be. Together we can move towards healing and self discovery and explore what's preventing you from living a more free and fulfilling life.
