About me
I am a Jungian Analyst and psychotherapist, and I am also trained in Internal Family Systems. South African born, I live and work in London where I have been working in private practise for the last 7 years.
I work with a range of issues including depression, abuse, trauma, addiction, relationship difficulties, anxiety, eating disorders. I am fascinated by the multiplicity of the personality, and passionately believe that working with complexes (or parts of the personality) can enable self-healing and wholeness. Having practised yoga religiously for 30 years, I have a profound personal experience of the psyche-soma connection and view it to be of vital significance to the work that I facilitate with clients.
I am a member of the Guild of Analytical Psychologists, a London-based Jungian training organisation. I teach on the Foundation and Diploma courses, alongside my clinical work.

Approach
Trained in classical Jungian analysis, I take a teleological approach to the psyche, and fundamentally believe in the capacity of the human psyche to heal if given the support and opportunity to do so. I have been particularly influenced by Internal Family Systems, a modality that is non-pathologising, and enables both therapist and client to access the depths of psyche with curiosity, compassion and creativity, beyond the limitations of ego and intellect. In essence, the work that I do is embodied and soulful. My consulting room is a level playing field. I meet each person that I work with with equanimity and a deep respect for their decision and courage to face inwards and commit to a process of healing, change and growth.
