At the heart of my work lies the understanding that people are not broken, sick, or in need of fixing. I see each person as a unique individual, with their own experiences, strengths, and inherent capacity to grow and reach their full potential when given the right conditions. Therapy is a space to nurture your existing wisdom, values, and authentic way of being, supporting you to bring more meaning and purpose to your life.

My approach is humanistic and drawing from Gestalt, Person-Centred practice, Transactional Analysis, and Formative Psychology, grounded in both somatic (body) and relational traditions. This means that at the centre of our work together will be the relationship between us in the here and now. We will attend not only to your thoughts and feelings, but also to the wisdom of your body: how it holds memory, emotion, and survival responses. Together, we will listen closely to what is present in the moment: physical sensations, relational dynamics, images, metaphors, and language.

Areas of interest and experience
I have a particular interest in supporting people facing anxiety, depression, addiction, relationship difficulties, bereavement and loss, or times of change and transition.

Much of my working life has involved listening to and supporting people through complex situations, which has shaped how I work as a therapist. I’m especially interested in working with people who feel stuck, overwhelmed or cut off from themselves, even if they don’t yet have the words for what’s going on.

Supporting Parents

Parenting can be one of life’s most meaningful parts, but it can also be exhausting, overwhelming and lonely at times. I have a particular interest in supporting parents who want an honest space to discuss their parenting experience.

As a mother who sought support by joining a parenting group, I have spent nearly ten years sharing the real experiences of raising children alongside other parents.

Together we can explore the pressures you might be carrying and find ways of relating to your children that feel more connected, more manageable, and more in line with the kind of parent you want to be.

How I work

My way of working is suited for those drawn to open-ended therapy that enables deep exploration. If you are looking for a short-term set of sessions focused on one specific issue, I may not be the right therapist for you.

I hold an inclusive and respectful space for all, recognising the unique ways our histories, cultures, and bodies shape who we are. I see the therapeutic relationship as a meeting of two embodied beings; each with our own sensations, capacities, and possibilities. This perspective invites us to explore not only the stories we carry, but also the lived experiences of our bodies in relation to one another, allowing difference to be acknowledged, respected, and worked with as part of the therapeutic process.

I hold an anti-diet, weight-neutral approach and have a particular interest and extensive experience in empowering people to know and trust their bodies. My year-long certificate in Neurodiversity Affirming Practice helps me meet clients with a deeply humanistic stance, creating a relationship where all forms of neurodivergence are welcomed without pathologising.

Duration

I offer 50-minute sessions for individuals. 

If, after our initial meeting, we decide to work together, we will meet once a week on the same day and time, for as long as the work continues to be helpful. We’ll review the process regularly to ensure you are getting the most from our time together.

Face to face sessions at HOMA

My practice hours at HOMA are 12-5pm on Wednesdays.

Online therapy

I offer online sessions as well, allowing you to access therapy wherever you are.

Walk and Talk

I offer walk-and-talk therapy on Hampstead Heath as an invitation to step out of the room and into a more embodied relationship with the world around us. Inspired by the principles of Wild Therapy, our work outdoors recognises the body, the land, and the present moment as active participants in the therapeutic process. Walking side by side can soften the intensity of face-to-face dialogue, open new perspectives, and help us connect with the deeper, often unspoken layers of experience that emerge in movement and in nature.
