I am an experienced psychodynamic counsellor and psychotherapist based in London and the South East of England. I am fascinated by how we create fulfilling lives for ourselves and the creative strategies we unconsciously develop from an early age to manage our difficulties, conflicts and desires. Where there is pain, there is often the beginnings of hope.

I see patients in person at Number 42, a community for counselling and wellbeing in London Bridge and have a clinic in Tunbridge Wells. I have extensive experience working as a psychotherapist for charities serving queer and gender non-confirming clients and for the NHS as part of secondary psychological services in Newham, East London.

I trained at Goldsmiths University on the Post-Graduate Certificate in Humanistic and Psychodynamic Counselling. I obtained my clinical qualification from Birkbeck University, where I completed MSc in Psychodynamic Counselling and Psychotherapy for adults. I have gone on to complete a Foundation training in Group Analysis with the Institute of Group Analysis (IGA) and specialist trainings in infertility, pregnancy loss and subsequent pregnancies after loss with the Foundation for Infant Loss. 

My background combines academic research on the relationship between medical conditions, social responses and healthcare policy with using evidence from lived-experiences to redesign services in complex, regulated and public sector environments. I am a published author and part of the editorial group for the academic journal Psychodynamic Practice.

I am registered with the British Association of Counselling and Psychotherapy (BACP) British Psychoanalytic Council (BPC) and International Association of Relational Psychoanalysis and Psychotherapy (IARPP). I work within their ethical guidelines.
