About me
I have been working in the National Health Service for the last 20 years, as a Psychotherapist, and Psychologist. This has involved offering treatment in secondary care settings where clients tend to have severe and enduring difficulties. I have also worked in private practice with a range of private health care providers for over a decade.

Approach
Treatment Approaches
ACT: Acceptance and commitment therapyRecommended for those who want to stop fighting negative thoughts and learn how to live with more acceptance and focus on what really matters in life.
CBT: Cognitive behavioural therapyRecommended for those looking for practical support and accountability to change unhelpful thinking and behaviors.
CFT: Compassion-focused therapyRecommended for those who want to be kinder to themselves and reduce negative self-talk, often using mindfulness techniques.
DBT: Dialectical behaviour therapyRecommended for those who want to learn skills to manage intense emotions and improve their relationships, especially if they feel easily overwhelmed.
I have worked in the City & Hackney for the last 20 years, and area with an extremely diverse, and dynamic population, ranging from media, and financial professionals, to communities with extreme deprivation. In this setting I have cultivated a deep understanding of the ways in which individuals can become distressed, seeing past the trappings of success, or acute deprivation. I use personal strengths, imagery, meditation, and belief restructuring, in creative ways to best suit each client.
